Forty years ago as I grew up nearby, volleyball was considered a girls sport. Today at most area middle schools, girls are entitled to participate in all of the sports offered, including wrestling. In a few area schools, interscholastic volleyball is not available for boys.
Why is volleyball important? Let me give two reasons: It can be played life long and it teaches teamwork. With the occasional exception such as Doug Collins' give-the-ball-to-Michael strategy, coaches of all sports preach the value of teamwork. Volleyball teaches teamwork naturally.
