Amazing growth in all areas with more to build upon. Our 14’s put on a show these past two weekends, leading us to believe that they wholeheartedly are buying in to our system and culture. We were amazed at the sportsmanship, self-confidence, humility and our “Never give up attitude” when things didn’t go our way! We went into these last tournaments looking for aggressiveness, good attitudes, talking and with our main focus being on the fundamentals. We feel that our girls have improved strongly over the last couple of months and really brought that onto the court. We learned that playing volleyball is not just about the win but it is about playing the best game we can in whatever situation we are in.
We, as a coaching staff, are thankful and honored to coach these kids on the court and in our own special way make them appreciate the simple things Volleyball has to offer on and off the court.
Lastly, we want to wish our 14’s ohana a Mele Kalikimaka and a Hauoli Makahiki Hou, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Solid start from our u16s group with everyone having at least one & some having two friendships under their belts. After a month or so of our mixture of trainings, it seems this group is poised to have a special season. The level of commitment & dedication necessary to become a “special team” is being shared, taught & learned daily. Choices are individually being made that will determine their level of growth. Just two more weeks or so of training & preparation before the MHM-MLK tourney in Eugene…HIKI NO, Lezzzzgoooo!

First tournament under our belt. It’s been a long, tedious month and a half and it was nice to play against someone else. Good showing from the group, and nice and refreshing to see that the hard work has led to a solid start. It’s exciting to see the growth from the start of the year, but more importantly, the growth that is itching to come to the surface. Hard work and dedication in leads to success on and off the court. How much do you want to put in? Looking forward to the next month leading up to MLK weekend!
