Fundraising Galore!

The fundraising run started as soon as the semester began. The team started out the first weekend back to school by reffing the Cactus Classic Junior Volleyball Tournament in Tucson, Arizona. The club reffed at multiple locations for girls ranging from 12-18 years old. This fundraiser earned the team approximately $1300, a huge help for one weekend of work!!

This upcoming weekend, on February 16th, the team will be holding their first annual golf tournament at Arizona National. After tons of hard work from Marti Larriva, tournament head, and all the girls, it seems that the tournament should bring in approximately $4000.

More updates to come: Golf Tournament Results, and traveling updates for Vegas and Nationals!

SDSU Tournament

The SDSU Women's Club Volleyball Team held a friendship tournament this past weekend. Nineteen of the UofA players and 4 coaches traveled to San Diego to participate.

The UofA B team had a rough start to the season but showed great potential as they learn more about the college club game. The UofA A team finished the tournament in first place after beating SDSU in the finals.

A special thank you to the families and friends who helped the team out by giving us places to stay! We appreciate it more than you know!!

More Fundraising...

After working at the Desert Thunder Rodeo a few weeks ago in October, the girls have now earned enough money to start making purchases. The team collected money and tickets, organized the parking lot, and sold food at concession stands to earn around $3000. New volleyballs for practice and a third set of uniforms will be ordered this season due to NIRSA regulations for the libero jersey.

First Fundraiser of the Season!

The team embarked on their first fundraising event of the season. Yesterday, 14 of the girls directed traffic in the parking lot for the Kiim FM Country Music Festival. The next major fundraising event will be the Rodeo held in October.
