Olympic Gold Medalist and the nation's #1 skill instructor, Pat Powers will be
coming to Payette, ID  June 11th-12th to present his highly successful skills
clinic.

Where:  	 McCain Middle School
When: 	 Thursday, June 11th, 12pm-7pm   Friday, June 12th, 9am-2pm
Ages:      	 Girls & Boys ages 12-18 & Adults
Registration fee: $100
Experience: 	       Novice through advanced.  Players are divided up on three
courts one hour into the event. Generally speaking, we have one court of 12-13
year olds (novice), one court of 14-16 year olds
                                        and one court of advanced girls.

Why is this clinic the best?  The "over-correction" learning method combined
with "Survivor" has the advantage of skill development while you are playing. 
These advanced skills are downloaded into the motor memory through massive
repetition while the player is competing in a non-intimidating environment. 
Note: This clinic is not about competition.  It is about skill development.

******We have about 25 spots left for these events*****************

WHAT IS COVERED IN THE CLINIC

** Learn the mechanics of a perfect arm swing.
** Learn how to control the ball, control power and be quicker with one simple
move while underhand passing.
** Setters: Learn what to look at and how to make your hitters better.
** Defensive players: Learn what NOT to look at when you play defense.
** Peripheral vision is a must in all sports!  Learn how we use it in
volleyball.
** Learn four simple rules of communication that teach you how to think three
seconds ahead and make the players around you better.
** And Much More.............

The 2009 Polar Bear Classic Re-Cap:
Last Saturday was by far the most fun and exciting blind-draw tourney
npbva has ever had!!

The semi's had Michael Seeman's squad of Ann(Salem), Courtney
(Vancouver), and Mike(Eugene) getting past Rich Nelson's team;
Michelle(Portland) , Derek(Portland) , Deng(Portland) , in 3 games as
players from each team took turns bouncing balls from the sand to the
rafters!

The other semi had Kerry Becker's team; Doug(Salem), Amanda(San
Francisco), Michael(Newberg) , Martin(Portland) playing against
Denis 'The Gentle Giant' Zhukov's squad; Chris(Newberg) , Anne
(Portland), Leo T.(Portland) . The battle exchange at the net was one
for the ages as Kerry 'Has anyone seen the movie Benjamin Button?'
Becker and 'The Gentle Giant' each put on a show bouncing ball around
each others block then in turn blocking each other, most of which
were played close to 2ft over the net! As a volley fan I would pay
more than the cost of a court-side Blazer ticket to watch that
again!! At the end of the 3-game match Denis and crew advanced to the
finals.

The triple threat attack of Michael, Mike, and Courtney again pushed
Denis and crew to 3 games, but once again 'The Gentle Giant"
prevailed. Congrats to Denis, Chris, Anne, and Leo! Thanks again to
everyone who played, especially those that came from as far away as
Bend, Vancouver, Eugene, and S.F.!

F I V B  FEDERATION INTERNATIONALE DE VOLLEYBALL
PRESS RELEASE 29.07.2007

AMERICANS SWEEP SWATCH-FIVB WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP GOLD MEDALS

Gstaad, Switzerland, July 29, 2007 - The only thing that Todd Rogers
mishandled here Sunday was the opening of a champagne bottle after he and
Phil Dalhausser won the men’s finale to give the United States a sweep of
the gold medals this weekend at the 2007 SWATCH-FIVB World Championships
powered by 1to1 energy.

After eliminating reigning Olympic champions Emanuel Rego and Ricardo Santos
of Brazil in the morning’s first semi-final match, Dalhausser and Rogers
joined compatriots Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh as USA gold medal
winners this weekend by defeating Dmitri Barsouk and Igor Kolodinsky of
Russia 21-16 and 21-14 in the 45-minute finale.

In addition to sharing the US$60,000 first-place prize in the $1-million
“Beach Volleyball Bash” in the Swiss Alps, Dalhausser and Rogers will
benefit from the 1,000 points towards qualifying for the Beijing 2008
Olympics.  A tandem’s best eight finishes on the SWATCH-FIVB World Tour
through July 20, 2008 will count towards qualifying for the 24-team field.

“This weekend was about Beach Volleyball, but not just about Beach
Volleyball,” said the 33-year Rogers, who was named the SWATCH most
outstanding player for the SWATCH-FIVB World Championships.  “For me, these
experiences are what I will remember.  It not only is the competition, but
it is about the fans in the stands, the beautiful surroundings and the
overall atmosphere of good feelings generated this weekend.”

Rogers also added, that his partner “was the real outstanding player for the
event.  I bet Phil that he would be the SWATCH top player for the event
since this was a homecoming for him and his family.  I share this award with
him as he is becoming one of the great players in the world.  I am lucky to
have him as a partner.”

Sunday’s title was the second SWATCH gold medal for the Americans, who won
for the first time on the FIVB tour last August in Austria where Dalhausser
and Rogers defeated Emanuel and Ricardo for the title.  The next stop on the
international circuit is next week in Austria where Dalhausser and Rogers
will be defending their Klagenfurt title as the reigning SWATCH-FIVB World
Champions.

“It is a tremendous feeling to win this title in front of my parents and
relatives,” said the 27-year old Dalhausser, who lived a year in Switzerland
before moving to the United States with his Swiss mother and German father.
“We played two quality opponents today.  Except for the second set against
the Brazilians, we had a great day.”

Rogers and Dalhausser advanced to the gold medal match by posting a 21-16,
13-21 and 19-17 win in 68 minutes over Emanuel and Ricardo, who captured the
2003 SWATCH-FIVB World Championships in Rio de Janeiro before claiming
Olympic gold the next year in Athens.

Barsouk and Kolodinsky, who shared $45,000 for second-place as the first
Russian men’s or women’s team to play in a SWATCH-FIVB World Tour gold medal
match in the 20-plus-year history of the International circuit, advanced to
the title match with a 21-13 and 21-19 win in 45 minutes over Andrew Schacht
and Joshua Slack of Australia.

In the bronze medal match, Schacht and Slack ended Brazil’s run of men’s
medals at the SWATCH-FIVB World Championships as the Australians upset
Emanuel and Ricardo 21-17 and 21-19 win in 42 minutes to capture the $35,000
third-place prize.  The Brazilians split $28,000 for fourth-place.

The eighth of 13 double gender stops on the 2007 SWATCH-FIVB World Tour, the
women’s 2007 SWATCH-FIVB World Championships ended Saturday with reigning
Olympic champions May-Treanor and Walsh defeating Jia Tian and Jie Wang of
China 21-16 and 21-10 for their third-straight world title.

Hey fellow volleyball fanatics! My name is Nicole Nilson and I play
year around/every surface volleyball in the Atlanta, GA area.  I work
with/for Pro
Beach Volleyball Player AL-B Hannemann and his sports travel
companies "Volleyball Vacations" and "Ulitimate Sports Vacations".
In February I went on my first "Volleyball Vacation" cruise where we
had amazing clinics and play in Jamaica, Grand Turks, Cozumel and
Grand Cayman.  I have been playing this game for 25 years and I must
say that I saw more improvement of my skills and learned more about
this game in that week than I have over the last 15 years!...And got
to play in beautiful settings to boot!
AL-B has been running "Volleyball Vacations" for 12 years, and if you
are a volleyball enthusiast like me, you will agree that there is
simply no better vacation to take!  I don't know about you, but a
perfect vacation to me is being on the beach, playing ball until I
drop and then having a few (OK, maybe 10?!) drinks and some sort of
fun at night!  However, I find that when I try to get a pick-up game
at the beach, there are usually nothing but "BBQ ballers"
available.....and that is just not the same....or even fun.
Well, AL-B has taken care of that with his new venture "Ultimate
Sports Vacations".  From October 27-November 3rd we will be taking
over the entire club med village in Turks and Caicos.  The best and
most unique thing about this trip is that it will include multiple
other sports/disciplines that will make up the rest of the village.
That means that because we "own" the village there will be nothing
but other like-minded athletic adults to play and party with!
For the volleyball villagers, our day will be a mixture of clinics
and tournament play with AVP pro's.  Last trip the pro's included
Sinjin Smith, "Team Gorgeous" Michelle Moore and Suzanne Stonebarger,
Gold medalist Eric Fonoimoana and of course, AL-B.
They have also lined up amazing nightly entertainment, a huge
Halloween Bash and an end-of-week multiple sports village Olympics.
This is an all-inclusive vacation package, which means that all food,
drinks (yes, even top-shelf liquors), coaching and entertainment is
included in the price!!!!(Yes, that means once you get there, you
won't need to spend another penny!!!)  For the volleyball portion the
cost is $1550 for the land portion.  We have found a very cheap
flights recently.... for example $356.20 out of Atlanta this week.
If you have a friend
that would love to go but doesn't play ball, they can come for $1300
and get a taste of all the sports/disciplines that USV is offering,
or just hang out and enjoy all that club med has to offer.
I can say first hand that there is no better way to improve your game
than to be coached by the pro's.  As they have told me time and time
again, "It doesn't matter how many times you play, the only way you
will get better and really improve your game is to run drills".  It's
true!
I am hoping to get a great turnout from FUN people from all over the
country who love to socialize and play alot of ball!!  You can go to
www.ultimatesportsvacations.com to read up on all the sports offered,
and see a schedule of events for the week.  To read up on AL-B go to
www.alhannemann.com , www.volleyballvacations.com  or

bb2nicole@... or 404-423-9973.
Hope to see you on the beach!!!!

EVP National Pro Tour and NPBVA Local Pro Tour combined this weekend
to host a Professional Beach Volleyball Event in Seaside, Oregon. The
weather was perfect at the beach as the bronzed athletes took to
competition, all in search of the championship title.

The Men's Pro Division had the Seattle team of Jeremy Irey and Scott
Behrbaum cruising through a strong field of teams to make the men's
finals while Brain Chapman of Portland, and teammate Ken Murczek of
Chicago had to dig deep to reach the finals. Jeremy Irey's amazing
defense and Scott Behrbaum monster block proved to be too much for
Chapman/Murczek as Irey/Behrbaum took the Men's Championship Title in

Hello everyone, It's that time of year again when I start getting
desperate in tracking down college level volleyball players. We are a
small Bible College located in North Dakota and I am in dire need of
some players for this coming fall. So if you still have any college
eligilibity left (or you know someone who does and might be
interested) and want to finish your education we could really use your
talents. Because our institution is so small we can offer a strong
sense of community and the environmemt on campus is a strong
Christian. If you think you might be interested I'd love to talk to
you further about TBC so call or email and we'll see what the Lord can
do...
