If you hold it, they will come.

Coupeville High School’s volleyball players and coaches held a free clinic for local kids in grade K-6 Thursday and got a sizable turnout.

Wolf coach Breanne Smedley estimated the turnout at between 25-30 young players.

“It was great!,” she said. “The CHS players did a great job of running the courts as the kids rotated through skill stations.

“The kids and players both had a blast and learned a lot!,” Smedley added. “It was great to see so many youngsters excited about volleyball and our volleyball players stepping up to lead them.”

The Wolves will host a second free K-6 clinic Saturday, Oct. 18 from 10-11:30 AM.
