We will decide what we will wear for the rest of the week on Monday. At this time, we do not have pink T-shirts.

Players will need to have a ride down and back each day. Food is also not provided. Please make sure your daughters have plenty of healthy food and snacks for the day. It is not known at this time whether parents will be able to watch on Thursday or Friday. Once we find out, we will let you know.

Meet the New Coaching Staff

Hello All,

 I’d like to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Deborah Rowan and I am the new Head Volleyball Coach here at Riverton. Many of you already know who I am, but for those who don’t, here is a little bit of background. 

I have been coaching for 8 years, 1 of those seasons as an assistant at Westminster College and 3 seasons have been as Sophmore and Asst. Coach at Riverton.  I played at the collegiate level and had the opportunity to travel to Italy and Slovenia with 1 of 3 USA volleyball teams. 

My coaching philosophy is to provide athletes with the fundamental skills and knowledge needed to succeed in volleyball AND life by investing in each athlete, on and off the court, and creating an environment in which they can learn to problem solve and work together to accomplish goals as a team and individually.

Amanda Gubler will be staying with the Riverton volleyball program as Asst. Coach and will be available to meet at the Parent/Athlete meeting.

There will be a Parent/Athlete meeting held on Monday, April 23^rd at 6:30pm (location to be determined).  We would like any and all players (and their parents) interested in playing volleyball to attend. This is to include grades 8-11. We will discuss the upcoming Spring/Summer Schedule and touch base on a few things looking into season. We will have a survey for parents to fill out and return to us at the meeting.  For those that cannot attend the meeting, we will post information on the blog.

We will have a few open gyms in May. They will be from 2:30-4:30 Tuesday the 15^th and 22^nd and on Thursday the 17^th. We will let you know if anything changes.

Thank you all for your support of Riverton Volleyball! We are excited for the upcoming season and look forward to meeting you.

Please feel free to contact me at rivertonhighvball@gmail.com with any questions.

Thank you,

Coach Rowan
