Why I like Volleyball

        Volleyball is such an amazing sport.  It is becoming more and more popular every year.  In volleyball you create friends for life and you meet so many people that you wouldn't know otherwise.

#1- It is exciting

Volleyball is so intense.  You never know where the ball is going to go.  Volleyball is the most intense sport in my opinion because it is fast.

#2- You meet so many people

This year my team for Maine Juniors became so close.  We had people from Falmouth, Yarmouth, Gray, Gorham, and Scarborough.  If it wasn't for this team, I wouldn't know any of my teammates.  I love meeting people from other towns and this is a great way to do it.

#3- You get to go to tournaments

Tournaments are so fun, especially the full weekend tournaments.  You get to spend a whole day watching and playing volleyball with your friends at tournaments.  

#4- You can dive on the ground

Usually when you dive on the ground, it is because you tripped and fell.  In volleyball, you have to dive for the ball and give all you have to keep the ball up.  I love diving because you save the ball and then everyone is amazed that you got to the ball.
