Come together through sports.

Coupeville School District students in grades 4-6 can sign up to join the Wolf Buddies program this fall and spend quality time with current CHS volleyball and football stars.

For the low, low cost of just $5, students get to participate in two activity dates and attend CHS games where they will get to sit in special seating and take part in pre-game events.

The program is set up to “provide mentorship and positive interactions between elementary students and high school athletes.”

Athletes gain leadership skills and accountability while young students benefit socially, emotionally, and academically from interacting with an additional positive role model.

The activity days are Oct. 12 and 19, from 2:45-3:30 each day.

Students involved will be allowed to miss the final 45 minutes of the school day to participate.

Volleyball buddies will attend matches Oct. 18 and 25 (they can be at either or both), while football buddies get their game in the spotlight Nov. 4.

Students will be present for the pre-game speech in the locker room, form the tunnel on the court/field, and sit in a designated section.

Admission for the student is FREE.

However, students MUST be accompanied by an adult in order to attend the games. Adults will need to pay admission.

To sign up your student, either print and fill out the application below or obtain an official-looking version of the application from the office at CHS, CMS or CES or at the ticket table at tonight’s Wolf volleyball match (4:00 varsity/5:15 JV and C-Team).

The Wolf Buddies are back, and stronger than ever.

Kicking off a new year of the program — which unites Coupeville High School volleyball players with elementary school children — the Wolves and their young charges kicked up their heels.

“The girls did an awesome job of being role models to these young ones while serving their community and the future of their volleyball program,” said CHS coach Breanne Smedley. “So fun to watch it in action!”

The Wolves were home and the joint was hoppin’.

Given a chance to see their volleyball squads in action on their home court for the first time in two weeks Thursday, a strong mix of parents, students and fans jammed into the CHS gym.

Among those cheering on the players were members of the newly-formed Wolf Buddies — Coupeville Elementary School students paired up with Wolf spikers.

Across the way, the student section, still not back to what it once was in years past, at least was partially revived.

Costumes were absent, but, thanks to a kick in the rear from Wolf football players Joel Walstad and Matt Shank, the CHS students in the section were vocal at times.

Will the roar fully return? Only time will tell.

For now, you can bask in a mix of pics from travelin’ photo man John Fisken. The photos capture a mix of on-court and off-court action.
