New Location this Saturday Only! We will set up nets on the grass lawn directly in front of the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA), located in City Park, to cheer on the runners/walkers that are participating in the Allstate Sugar Bowl Celebration in the Oaks Run/Walk.  The run/walk is scheduled to start at 3:30pm.

 

Adult clinic from 9:30am-11:30am to benefit Typhoon Haiyan victims.  Reuben Alumbres will once again be offering an adult clinic Saturday morning, November 30, for donation ($30.00 suggested) to help his family members back in the Philippines recover from the devastating effects of Typhoon Haiyan.  His family resides on the island of Samar right next to Leyte, so they were hit hard.  The five adults that went through Reuben's clonic last weekend got a lot out of it!  Please contact Reuben at r.alumbres.nextlevel@gmail.com or (504)487-3753 to reserve a spot. Cancelled this Saturday!

 Ran out of Daylight, see you next year.

 

 

 

The Mid-City Volleyball Group (MCVG) is a collection of people from across the city who are passionate about playing and promoting outdoor volleyball.  We regularly set up portable courts along Bayou St John across from the Mid-City post office for clinics, tournaments and pick-up games.  We are equal-opportunity fun-seekers who wish to share our love of the game, so we invite players of all skill levels to join us.  Our ultimate goal is to build and operate a modest sand volleyball venue in Mid-City that will offer beginning and advanced level clinics, tournaments and league play.

MCVG currently offers the following activities:

• Saturday noon “speed” tournament for adults or advanced juniors; $5.00/player (See above for start time). 
• Saturday afternoon pick-up volleyball for all skill levels following the weekly "speed" tournament; free.
• Tuesday night volleyball (Sorry, no more daylight, see you Spring 2014).

Mid-City Youth Volleyball, MCVG's sister organization, offers the following activities:

• Youth League for youths 10-17
• Mini-Volleyball, ages 6-9ish
