Volleyball on Monday Public Holiday

Play social volleyball in a structured yet easy-going relaxed atmosphere. All levels welcome, from "never-played-before" to "advanced". **What we usually do:** 1. **Set-up** volleyball nets/courts. **Warm up** drills. **Play time**. 2. **Mixed games** (each team will have a mix of players of different playing level). This allows intermediate and beginners to learn from the the more experienced players. **Note:** Advanced players are NOT allowed to serve or spike hard. If they do, they may be asked to leave. 3. **Level-based games.** We will form teams based on skill level, so the more advanced players don't have to hold back any more and the more intermediate or beginners can practice what they've learned with other players of a similar playing level. 4. **Pack-up equipment.** Please don't leave any equipment, belongings or rubbish behind. **FREE event** We will provide the volleyball equipment, a bluetooth speaker (accepts USB sticks and memory cards) and the space to play. You BYO everything else (suitable clothes, footwear, water bottle (there are taps you can use to refill), sun protection, food, etc.). Since it is a public holiday, feel free to bring something extra (snacks, food, drinks) for yourself and/or to share - no pressure or obligation. **Location:** We play in the large flat open area opposite the Kiosk/Cafe (with toilets) and children's playground. These maps should help: * [Photo/map](https://www.meetup.com/volleyball-at-sydney-park/photos/33390251/512713637/) * [Google Maps](https://maps.app.goo.gl/8KHnSEGbQXHrHKnBA) See you at the park! *** By attending any of our events, you and your guests agree to our [Terms & Conditions](https://www.meetup.com/volleyball-at-sydney-park/pages/32605187/TERMS_AND_CONDITIONS/) Some basic T&C's: Everyone comes at their own risk.
