With the start of the school year Yorkton is in need of volleyball officials for the 2013/14 year. "We have a good number of veteran officials, but it is often not enough to keep up with the demand of having a handful of high school teams at each level of volleyball at Sacred Heart and the YRHS combined with elementary school play so we are in need of more officials in the city," explains local ref Don Pfiefer.
With the crunch for more bodies to keep local volleyball thriving in Yorkton and maintaining well officiated matches throughout the area, there will be three Saskatchewan Volleyball Association clinics across the Parkland area in September with the aim to grow another solid base of officials in the East Central Saskatchewan area.
Pfiefer explains that officiating volleyball can be a nice supplement to one's income at the same time as volunteering an invaluable service to the community. "We need officials to keep a thriving volleyball community in Yorkton running smoothly throughout the high school, elementary and club volleyball seasons at with so many games there is plenty of opportunity to work matches during the week and at various weekend tournaments throughout the fall."
The clinic will be free of charge and held at the YRHS September 9 at 7:00 p.m.
