Partly due to my climbing injury, but more due to the fact that it’s just a lot of fun, Judy and I have started playing more volleyball. We play occasionally at the Stanford sand courts and last weekend played in a reverse co-ed grass tournament. We were definitely still a bit rusty and didn’t do too well. However, we could definitely feel our game slowly creeping back.

Today we played in the No Attitudes tournament and ended up winning the Tide Pool division. It was a really hot day (even though we were right on the beach) and the end of the tournament became more of a battle of attrition. Our rustiness has mostly worn off and we’re having a lot more fun, although we’re still getting used to playing in the deep sand.

The pics above are from Phil Kaplan, the tournament’s director. You can check out his site and more photos here. Results for this tourney can be found here and more photos from the event are here.
