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.

After the game, we need a team effort to pack up the equipment and to carry it back to the car. If you are not prepared to help, please do not join us. We only want team players, not selfish people. **Waitlists:** If your name is on the Waitlist, you do **NOT** have a spot. **A spot** **may become available to you up until midday** (even later) on the day of the event. Waitlists/allocated spots are now **discretionary** and not in order of response. This is to assist running the event as smoothly as possible for the organiser and the players & also to reward loyalty (members and regular players and those who turn up on time). **No-shows:** No shows are disrespectful towards the organiser and the other players (especially those on the waitlist) and will now be given 2 chances/warnings and banned on their 3rd "no-show". This includes yourself and any +1 guests you have reserved a spot for. To avoid a no-show, make sure you **update your RSVP before 9am** of the morning of the meetup (i.e. Sunday morning 9am). **This also applies to those on the Waitlist**. If you are on the waitlist, there is a chance you will be moved to the "Going" list, so if you will no longer attend, ensure you change your RSVP to "Not going" by 9am (day of event). **Questions:** If you have any questions, please ask.
