The 2008-2009 Niagara Frontier Volleyball Club Handbook is now available online.
All players and parents should read the handbook. It outlines the expectations of the club for itself, its athletes, and its parents, including sections on Player Code of Conduct and Parent Code of Conduct. The final sheet of the handbook is a signature page required of the athlete and her parent(s).
Please take some time to review the handbook, and complete the required signature page. The signature page is to be returned to Gail Tylec prior to the athlete’s first official practice. (Gail has a mailbox at the BNCC in the NFVB room). Athletes without a completed form will not be allowed to practice.

The WNY Girls in Sports program held a sports clinic for 200 girls on Saturday, November 8th at the Buffalo Bills Field House. The goal of the WNY Girls in Sports program is to inspire, educate and motivate young girls on what sports can do for their lives.
In partnership with the United Way and Buffalo Public Schools, this interactive sports clinic encompassed female students from eight different “Closing the Gap” schools ages 9-12. Various stations such as softball, tennis, golf, lacrosse, volleyball, rowing, nutrition and Title IX were set up around the Field House for girls to learn more about the positive impact that sports can have on their lives. These young girls participated in the different sports, learned more about sports and health and had a lot of fun in the process.
Mary Wilson, wife of Buffalo Bills owner Ralph Wilson, founded the WNY Girls in Sports program in 2004 and was on hand to interact with the girls throughout the sessions. In addition, approximately 200 volunteers from the University at Buffalo, Canisius College, Niagara University, Upstate NY Jr. Golf, Sportsplex and the Niagara Frontier Jr. Olympic Volleyball Club took part in coaching and educating the girls.
12 of the Niagara Frontier Volleyball Club participants and two coaches volunteered their time for the event.
