(Note: Game times may coincide with Husker football.) All teams will play a round robin schedule and are guaranteed a minimum of six games. League play will begin in early September. Grades 1st & 2nd: A clinic is held at this level to teach the fundamentals of the sport. The clinic will be held on Mondays from 6:30pm-8pm starting September 8th and ending October 13th (6 consecutive Mondays). The clinic will be led by Lisa Thiele and will be held at Wahoo High School. Grades 3rd & 4th: Games are played 6 vs. 6. No game scores or league standings are kept. All children receive equal playing time and have the opportunity to play all positions due to the rotation rule. Grades 5th & 6th: Games are played 6 vs. 6. Game scores will be kept but not league standings. All children receive equal playing time and have the opportunity to play all positions due to the rotation rule. Equipment All players must wear tennis shoes with non-marking soles. Volleyballs will be provided. Kneepads are optional. Uniforms Youth who participate in Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports need to have two uniform t-shirts, one red and one blue. The playing schedule dictates which color shirt to wear for each game. These shirts are used for all youth sport programs and are available in a variety of youth and adult sizes and can be purchased at the Civic Center for $6 each. Note: Uniform t-shirts are not required for the 1st & 2nd grade clinic. Rosters Team rosters are formed via random selection. Parents may request their daughter be placed on a team with one other child for legitimate carpooling purposes. Some car pooling requests may not occur. This information needs to be indicated on the registration form (no exceptions). Once teams are formed, coaches are responsible for contacting players on their rosters to set up practices and distribute information. Coaches Wahoo Parks and Recreation utilizes volunteer coaches for all youth sport programs. All head coaches are required to attend the coaches meeting or meet with the league director. Instruction on general coaching philosophy and principles as well as sport-specific information will be discussed. Schedules Playing schedules will be available after August 25th on this web page. Miscellaneous Participants and their parents/guardians should be aware that there is a risk of injury during participation in Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports due to the inherent nature of the activities. Individuals participate in Parks and Recreation youth sports at their own risk. Questions Contact Bob Schmidt at the Civic Center at 443-4174 during normal business hours.
