Rachel Volleyball Practice

Rachel is playing on the QSI volleyball team this year. This was a practice game against SIS, the other International school across the street, on Thursday. We won this game. Yesterday the team played in a tournament in Hong Kong. The team left Friday afternoon and stayed over night. They got third place in the tournament. Rachel had never played volleyball before this year. She was always so involved in Gymnastics or Cheer competitions. This has been a great experience for her. The team will be practicing for their next tournament in a few weeks in Shanghai. She's hoping she will make the traveling team. She made the Hong Kong team, so hopefully she'll make it.
Rachel with her friends from our branch, Noel and Corrine. They both play on the SIS volleyball team so during the game they are competitors and rivals, but after the game it's all fun again.

Way to go, Rachel. Just get mad at the ball and get in there with gusto to play. You will probably turn out to be a good player if you work at it. Have fun doing it...

I think volleyball is a LDS sport. Tommy's brothers in Las Vegas play volleyball and almost all of their team is LDS. Way to go Rachel!

I agree, volleyball is a LDS sport. On our mission we always had a game of volleyball on one half of the court and basketball on the other on P-days. The sisters would play volleyball and of course the Elders would be playing basketball.
