Alpine to Have Sign-ups for Fall League Sept 4th
Alpine Volleyball Club is offering for the first time a Fall League for 7th & 8th grade. We may consider also having 5th & 6th grade depending on interest.
With school district cutting sports programs, someone needs to fill that void and provide quality volleyball training. The league will be sanctioned by AAU Volleyball and players will need to join AAU for a small $14 fee. Any player that played USA Volleyball for a club other than Alpine will need a waiver signed by that club director for the fall season only.
Sign-up Info
When: September 4th at 9:00 AM

"Energy Drinks: Help, Harm, or Hype?"
Athletes who train hard and frequently often complain about "energy drain" and fatigue. Because they are regularly reminded to consume adequate fluids and fuel to minimize early fatigue and to maximize performance and recovery, the concept of an "energy" drink—fluid and energy together in one bottle—is very appealing.

Ankle braces curb sprains in volleyball players
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Ankle braces can help protect collegiate female volleyball players from sprains, a new study shows.
After University of Pennsylvania volleyball players were mandated to wear a padded brace on each ankle, just one ankle injury occurred in the course of seven seasons.
"From our data, it appears that the use of such a brace is an effective way to decrease the incidence of ankle injuries in this active but vulnerable group of athletes," conclude Dr. Brian J. Sennett of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in Philadelphia and colleagues.
