CLOSURE:
Review: Good job today class with the
gameplay, volleyball can be hard if you
do not communicate and work as a team
but most of you did pretty well with
that. Can anyone tell me how many
times each team can hit the ball? What
about how do we get a game started
again after a point is scored? Next week
we will be moving onto badmitton.
