Two Innisfail Jr./Sr. High volleyball squads are heading to playoff competitions in November.
With the regular season wrapping up this week, the City girls and the senior girls have qualified to go on to the next round.
Jeff Anderson, athletics director at the high school, said the City girls start playoffs Nov. 5-6 and the seniors Nov. 17.
Though the other volleyball teams didn't make the playoffs, they're finishing strong.
“All doing very well ... coming to the end of season,” Anderson said in an email.
In recent standout games the senior girls hammered Wetaskiwin, trouncing them in three sets, 25-6, 25-14 and 25-18 Anderson said.
This season all the teams have improved on skill development. The City and senior girls teams have also worked on tactical strategy, Anderson said.
The teams' greatest strengths have all been “focus, leadership and training,” Anderson said. They all need to continue to work on refining their skills and communication, he said.
