7th grade vb try-outs / practice will begin on Monday, Aug. 18th, after school from 3 to 5 pm. 

The first 4 days are tryouts.  Soft cuts will be on Wednesday, August 20th, and final cuts will be on Thursday or Friday., August 21-22 .  7th grade keeps around 20 girls.  

Everyone must have a school physical form, an assumption of risk form, & a concussion form on file with the school secretary, BEFORE they can EVEN try-out for VB. Make your Physical appointment now, as they will fill up fast this summer. Forms are available at your doctor's office, the school office, or online on SMS's school website to print off for your convenience. There are several places for parent and player's signature on the forms. Please make sure you have signed in all the correct spots. Please turn all these forms into the office before the 18th of August.  The first day of school would be a great day to turn your forms in, so we have them recorded before practice/tryouts begin on the 18th. The secretaries start back to work the first part of August, so you can drop papers off in the office, prior to the first day of school too.

If a student makes the volleyball team, practices will be after school most days, except for game days. There will also be approximately 4 morning practices, to be designated ahead of time that we will need to practice at 6 am.  We dismiss every Friday at 4:45 pm. after August is over.

Required practice attire:  shorts, t-shirt, sports bra, athletic tennis shoes, hair pulled back into a pony tail if possible, and ( optional) knee pads. The school provides uniforms when the season begins. Locker room, locks & lockers, will be checked out to players after our team has been chosen.

A team schoology page will be our major communication resource for our vb page. We ask that all players and parents/guardians join our Schoology page to keep updated during the season.  


As a member of our VB team, it is expected that each player remains in good standing academically and behaviorally at SMS. F reports will be run each Monday to check grades.  


Games begin the first week of September. September is a very busy month, having almost 2 games each week. The season is usually over the first week of October.
