Those who didn't make it, I encourage you to work hard this year by playing club (tryouts are the 1st week of November) and also the Pleasant Grove Recreation Volleyball program that starts very soon is a great way to get more repetitions to improve your game and tryout again next year.

Summer Conditioning & Asst Coach

About a month ago, Allyce Jones was hired as an Assistant Coach. Allyce is awesome! I am so excited to have her on the coaching staff. She is going to be such an asset to this program.

Here is her bio from Club Utah's website:

Allyce Jones:
Prepped at Pleasant Grove High School in Pleasant Grove, Utah ... led team to 34-1 record and region and state championship during senior year in 2005 ... was named the 2005 State Tournament MVP in addition to being named All-Region, All-State and the Utah Valley MVP and Female Athlete of the Year ... also earned All-State and Region honors in 2004 & 2005 ... named region MVP in 2003 and 1st Team All-Region in 2002. She then went to play at Snow College then at UVU where she was named Division I Independent Defensive Player of the Year and to the All-Independent 1st Team Libero in 2007 and 2008. This is her second year coaching Club volleyball.




Summer Conditioning:
Allyce has volunteered her time over the summer to provide Speed, Agility, and Jump training. She is planning on 2-3 times a week, depending on schedules. This will be free for all girls planning on trying out this Fall.


Please fill out the following survey by May 22. This will help us to schedule at a time that works for most girls.

Youth Clinic Referral Money

Just to clarify...

You can collect the money and registration forms. You will just turn the money and registration forms into the finance office by June 8th. (Checks payable to AFHS)

$5 for each referral you have will go towards any volleyball clothing, the tournament fee, and a possible retreat. Unfortunately, I cannot off-set your  participation fee or uniform rental costs.

So.......start referring!! :) Please get at least 10 referrals. With 10, you'll receive $50 off of the volleyball clothing of your choice. There is not a limit to how many you can refer. You can do as many as you would like!!
