The Whippet High School Volleyball Program, under the direction of Head Coach Mary Kilar, recently welcomed 73 youth from entering kindergarten through 8th grade to their youth volleyball skills camp. The high school team members and coaching staff worked with the youth for a three-day camp covering passing, setting, serving, and attacking. Special thanks to our local businesses Culver’s, Rocky’s, McDonald’s, and Brain Freeze for supporting some treats for the campers! Fun was had by all!
The youth are invited to Youth Night on August 31st when the Whippets take on Wilmot at home for a match. Youth will be invited to the court prior to warmups of the varsity match to make a tunnel for the athletes and after the match to pass with the Whippets! JV matches start at 5:00 p.m. and Varsity at 6:30 p.m.
