FULL !!
Updated on 2011-12-06 16:50:38It's become by far the biggest complaint around here. We can't get into your programs because they are full. The Winter Adult leagues starting in January are full with over 50 teams on the waiting lists and people mad at me because they contacted us as early as September and didn't get in (we actually started the fall waiting list back in April and we had practically no changes from Fall to Winter leagues). The Winter Dome Club starting in January has 300 kids registered and we have stopped taking more kids on the waiting list after the first 100 put their names in. Canuck Stuff Club and Project 16 have filled all their program space here so there are another 170 elite players signed up to practice and play 3-4 times per week until next May. YES, WE KNOW WE NEED MORE COURT SPACE. We have actually proposed to the City that they let us build something bigger or something else here, but at the moment everything is on hold because they have a 10 year plan to develop this athletic park. You can see their proposal on the City of Calgary website under Foothills Athletic Park planning. We have 3 1/2 years left on our lease here and then it will become year to year planning until the City is ready to build. Then they will not renew our lease, we will clean up, and the Volleydome will become part of their parking lot. In the meantime, nobody is saying much to us, so sorry - WE KNOW WE NEED MORE COURT SPACE, but we can't help you with that unless someone has a good 3 acre plot for sale ... cheap??
2012 Spring/Summer Adult League
Updated on 2011-11-24 20:49:39We are now taking registrations for our 2012 Spring/Summer leagues starting next May. The Spring/Summer leagues don't generally fill up until very close to the league starting dates so this is a great opportunity for new teams to get into Volleydome leagues so they can continue in the leagues next fall and winter. The cost is also a lot cheaper per week than fall or winter so sign up with your $100 deposit and give us a try. To register phone Don at 403 284-3663 with your credit card #, stop in at the Dome and pay by cash, debit, cheque or credit card, or sign up online HERE.
Coaches Needed Again
Updated on 2011-11-23 12:09:31We will need a few new coaches again for Dome Club kids from grades 6 to 12 starting again in mid January. The 3 different groups are already full with close to 100 kids in each group and we have quite a few experienced coaches coming back to help with this program, but we are still going to need about 5 more excited new coaches to help us make the program work. If you are interested in coaching please give us a call and we can find a team of exuberant young teens that need your help. The total time commitment will be about 40 hours of coaching mostly on either Saturday and Monday evenings or Friday evening plus Sunday afternoon from January to the end of March. Pay will be about $15 to $20 per hour depending upon your experience and abilities.
If you are interested please email Don at dsaxton@volleydome.net.Pro Shop Under New Management
