KOB Series #1 Results

Great start to the series everyone. We had 24 players with one sub...this is after the two injuries, and one last minute change. We could have easily ended up with 28. We started the KOB series a month earlier this season to meet demand. This worked out great, as everyone is fit, and ready to play. We noticed the play was already much better for all players. Keep up the great work ABQ...one of our goals is to make this a sought after series, so we continue to pull volleyball friends from other regions to compete. However, the main goal will remain to improve ABQ volleyball and welcome players at every level.

I seeded ranked players from last season according to their total points, and new one's by my best guess. This first series gave everyone an opportunity (after the first round) to get seeded again in the second round. The third round was determined based on those results and players finishes. From here on out, we will move toward the standard format.

Big welcome to the 11 new players...and all the regulars. Thumbs up to Aaron for taking first, and Drew, Daniel L., Chris U., Paul, & Will for playing extra tough.

VBUG Sandbox Winter Series 2012/2013

New Mexico Volleyball Underground (VBUG) has partnered with Charlie’s Sandbox to offer -VBUG’s 2012/13 Sandbox Winter series.

Last years series was a great success. We plan to offer the same format and even more great play. Additionally, we coordinated with the Oasis and the Island (in Colorado) to avoid any event conflicts to maximize turnout.

Charlie's offers 7 indoor sand courts, perfect for the fall/winter. If you are a diehard ‘Volleyballar’ or newer to the game this will certainly be a fun, exciting, and healthy way to spend part of your Sunday.
· Keep your “sand legs” or grow new one’s this winter, only use half your Sunday, and still get to play 9 games.
