Jourdyn's Volleyball Tryouts

My kids are growing up. I can't believe Jourdyn is going into the 7th grade. She is spending every evening this week trying out for the 7th grade girls volleyball team. She is working really hard. She has a slight disadvantage. In today's world, some of these girls that she is going up against have played volleyball for years now because of pay to play teams. She hasn't. Some of them have been to clinics and such and she hasn't. And there is about 50+ girls there trying to get on the teams and only 12 will make it onto both. So she has less than a 50/50 chance of getting picked. But she is out there giving it her best.

On Sunday, we watched Facing the Giants, which gave Rob and I the perfect segway to talking to her about leaving it all the court and doing her absolute best at all times. I'm praying that she makes the team and can have fun playing this year.
