So proud of her! On Sunday Shade had tryouts for the North Central Washington Volleyball Club. There were some 70-80 girls trying out for 10 spots each on 3 teams. The teams are organized by ability/skill, with the highest being the Gold team, then Black, then Blue. Not having a 15-yr old team, Shade tried-out for the team above her, the U-16 division. Despite them being "the hardest practice I've ever done", AND having an asthma attack in the middle of the tryout, she played her heart out was selected as one of the top ten, so made the U-16 GOLD team! It's a traveling team, with the majority of their tournaments being overnighters and out-of-towners. So happy for her and the experience she will get doing something she loves so much. GO Shade!
