There are 4 newcomball teams
this year. There are approximately
12 people on each team. The teams
names are Terminators, Oddballs,
Giants, and the Hurricanes.
The teams play at noon hours.
Two teams play at each game.
There are three rows of three
players on the floor at one time for
each team. The ball is served or
thrown over the net and the other
team must catch it and threw it
back. The game is played and
scored a lot like volleyball. We
have a lot of fun playing newcom
ball.
VOLLEYBALL
by S. Boyd and J. Brown
November has come once more
and Mrs. Whiteley, Grey’s gym
teacher has organized volleyball
and newcomball teams to play at
noon hours.
Grades 6, 7 and 8 are involved in
volleyball. The boys and girls are
divided into three teams each. The
girls teams are the Defenders,
Bombers and Killers. The boys
teams are the Ozzies, U2’s and the
Motleys.
Referees are volunteers from
grades 7 and 8.
Each team consists of about 10 to
12 people.
During volleyball, there are
many ways to return the ball over
the net after the serve, such as the
bump or by pushing it over by your
fingertips. By playing volleyball
during noon hours, students are
practising for the Volleyball Tour
nament at the F.E. Madill S.S.
