Sunday sand volleyball beginners level @ District 249 Bar & grill (READ DETAILS)

Read details and volleyball safety rules below carefully before signing up This is for beginners level non-competitive sand volleyball. We will pick teams randomly. There’s usually a mix of beginners and intermediate level players.
At a recent volleyball event, one of the Organizers Fran was hit in the face by a hard spike from a member that caused serious eye injury to Fran requiring medical attention and trip to ER as well as multiple hospital visits. Her eye injury could also lead to retina detachment which causes blindness. This member also hit another player earlier that same evening. The member who hit her has been removed and banned from the group. He was warned by Fran several times before not to spike the ball so hard directly at other players. This is a beginners volleyball group. It is intended for people to have a fun social volleyball outing and not to get spiked in the face. This is not professional volleyball or rugby group.
Going forward, all members must abide by the rules below. Anyone that does not follow the rules will be removed from the group.

1. Do not spike the ball directly at another player. If you want to score that badly even at the cost of injuring another player, this is not the group for you.
2. Make every attempt to not run into other players and respect your teammates’ space. Some players have been hitting balls that are clearly in the space of their teammates. When you do this you can hurt someone. I recommend saying “I got it” so that your teammate can back off.
3. Don’t touch the net! If you touch the net there’s a good chance you will make contact with someone on the other team and could step on their feet or knee them.
4. In between games, do not practice spiking the ball when other people are waiting on the sidelines talking. This is not safe!
