SIJ Girls Volleyball:
Grades 5 through 8

Fifth grade volleyball for girls is a developmental
program teaching the fundamentals of the sport, basic
skills, teamwork concepts and good sportsmanship.
Depending on turnout, fifth grade teams are divided
equally into peer squads.

Fifth grade practices are twice a week, beginning in
August. Games are played on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

In sixth, seventh and eighth grades, volleyball teams
are divided into one A-Team and as many B squads as
needed to give everyone an opportunity to play.
The goal is to divide B-Teams equally by talent.

The Athletic Director will seek parent volunteers to
coach B-Teams.

Sixth Grade

Sixth grade volleyball for girls begins with tryouts
in early August. Practices are twice a week.

Seventh and Eighth Grades

Tryouts for upper-grade level girls’ volleyball begin
in October. Practices are twice a week.

The goal of our athletic program is to provide our
students with enriched learning opportunities that can
be found in few other venues of life. We believe that
healthy athletic competition and high moral standards
complement each other. At Saint Isaac Jogues,
positive teamwork and Christian sportsmanship go
hand-in-glove.

Participation in athletic activities is a privilege, not
a right. Student-athletes are expected to abide by the
school’s code of conduct. Moreover, student-athletes
must meet the school’s Academic Standards for
Athletic Participation.
