QUEENS OF THE CASTLE | 10.12-10.17๐๐ฐ
With only varsity practicing, weโre celebrating a few people (and one unexpected visitor ๐) who embody our CASTLE Culture. Here are this weekโs Queens. ๐ฐ๐๐
C - Courage | Spider (Tournament Visiter)
Trying to make its volleyball debut. Would NOT stay off the court. Had heart. Had hustle. Never gave up. Unfortunately, Ada had other plans. ๐ซก๐ญ
A - Adapt | Lulu (Varsity)
Lulu has been putting in the work! Sheโs taken coaching feedback and turned it into action, and weโve seen that growth show up in her practices and key moments throughout our matches. Her willingness to learn, adjust, and keep working is what Adapt is all about. We love seeing her hard work pay off!
S - Synergy | Tony (Boys JV)
Castle culture goes beyond one program! A member of the boys JV volleyball program, Tony showed us what Synergy looks like when he volunteered at the last minute to help with our JV2 tournament. He was there bright and early at 7 AM to help set up and spent the entire day line judging, bringing a great attitude and giving his time to support others. Even while representing the boys program, Tony continues to embody the Castle culture and reminds us that weโre all part of something bigger than ourselves. Thanks for showing up for East volleyball, Tony!
L - Legacy | Coach Jill
With 28 years of coaching at East, Jillโs impact on this program is immeasurable. As an East volleyball alum, she has given so much of herself to the program she once played for, continuing to pour her time, energy, and heart into East volleyball season after season. Whether sheโs coaching, volunteering, or bringing her infectious energy to the gym, Jill makes everyone around her better. Every player and coach who has the privilege of working with her is lucky to know her, and I know I am a better coach because of her. She makes coming to East every day a joy, and I truly canโt imagine this program without her. Jill is more than part of our legacy. She IS the Legacy. ๐ฐ๐
Four Queens. Four examples of CASTLE Culture. ๐๐๐
