RATTLERS Recently:
(updated
Fri, Feb 5th)
-
*Rupe
temporarily on Sideline
-
Just to let
people know that 'Rupe'
(Terry Noble) has been been put on the 'injured reserve list'
for the next while in order to get some surgery done on his
back. The long-time SEAVC coach and ambassador for
volleyball has been
experiencing some mobility difficulties and numbness in his leg
(he hasn't been using that cane just to make himself look
more stylish than he already is) and required surgery to
rectify the problem.
-
Rupe
Update
(as ofJan 27th)
- Rupe is
now back from surgery in Calgary and is on his 'siesta' at the
Medicine Hat Hospital.
-
Rupe
Update
(as ofJan 31st)
- Rupe is up
in bed, but not quite ready for any Mutton Bustin' in Elkwater
yet. He now has access to a laptop once again, so Facebookers
and e-mailers beware!!
-
Rupe Update (Feb 4)
they evicted Rupe and he is now on
2
North (room 100)
:-)

Boys Teams updates:
- We have
coaches in place for the 13/14Men and 15/16M
-
Unfortunately we will not have a 17/18U men's team this
year as we were unable to secure a head coach for the team.
thanks to the athletes and their parents who tried to make it
happen.
Coaching
Opportunities
A big thank you to
the coaches who have stepped up to take on the vacant head
coaching responsibilities with SEAVC. We now believe
that we have a qualified head coach (or with a couple of
teams; 'co-coaches') in each program (except 17/18M) so that
we may continue with registrations and entering tournaments.
A SEAVC 'coaches contact list' will be made available for
parents on the SEAVC website shortly. A thank you goes
out to all of those who remained patient throughout this
unsettling process. I apologize for any inconvenience,
stress and confusion that the coaching shortage may have
caused anyone this year. Unfortunately, the 17/18U Men's
team will not run this year due to NO coaches offering the
take the team this year.
- SEAVC is still accepting keen, personable head coaches for various age
levels for the 2010 season!
- Coaching and/or playing experience is an asset, but not a
requirement
- Coaching development and mentorship will be provided through
SEAVC, MHC and ASDC
- Possible opportunities for official Coaching certification
- Coaches travel expenses are reimbursed for tournaments
Tournament
Conflicts
Athletes are asked to please check the
AVA 2010 Tournament schedule (click here for link) and to
bring a schedule of any possible conflicting dates (i.e.
basketball, hockey, family trips, etc) to the tryouts, or to
indicate conflicts on Athlete Registration Forms so
that coaches, athletes and parents may plan the upcoming season accordingly.
Please note that any tournament schedule is tentative only
and may change.

Updated: Feb 5th, 2010
17/18U women (born
1992-93):
We have registered 2 teams (18U
and 17U) and have asked a few 16U players to fill in
and/or register for 17U. This won't allow us to move
players from the 18U to 17U team at tournaments, but we
have a few 16U's who will be able to give the
17's enough players for each tourney so that they won't
need to borrow from the 18u's (and it would still allow
a 17U to play with 18's if it works out for some
weekends). We will work out the details with all the
athletes later. We can register the rest of the coaches
later. Thanks for
your support .... Wes and Sarah
***Athletes are asked to please check the
AVA 2010 Tournament schedule (click here for link) and to
bring a schedule of any possible conflicting dates (i.e.
basketball, family trips, etc) to the tryouts so that coaches
and athletes can plan the season accordingly.
**New for
2010 - Athletes born in 1991 and are in their 1st year of grade
12 may apply for an exemption to compete in the AVA Premier
Tournaments and Provincials, as well as the Canadian Open
Championships (maximum of 2 age-exempt players per team)
14/13U
Developmental program
Athletes wanting to play in the
14/13U
Developmental program (see explanation Below) (born 1996-97) will begin with 14/13U teams
(depending on number of athletes and gym scheduling, this group
may practice with 14/13U teams, by themselves if there are
enough players and/or with the 12U Developmental
Program.
12&Under Developmental Program
(born 1998-2001)
Will begin on Sunday, January 31st
at CHHS. There
are NO tryouts for this age group. All athletes who come
out may register at the time and will be run in a co-ed
environment.

DEVELOPMENTAL PROGRAM
12U Developmental Program (athletes born 1997-2001)
Athletes & Teams in the Competitive Program
will travel to tournaments and compete
in the Alberta Volleyball Association Provincial Championships.
Athletes in the Developmental Program will train,
but do not travel
to any tournaments.
The
Developmental Program is designed
for athletes who want to improve their volleyball skills and
knowledge, but choose to not compete in tournaments
throughout the province. It is
intended that there will be a small SEAVC home tournament at
the end of the season (tentatively Sunday,
March 21st) for the 13/14 Developmental
Athletes to compete in. There will also be a small
SEAVC wind-up tournament for the12U Developmental Athletes
on Tentatively on Sunday, April
25th) -> warning: parents may be asked by there
children to play for part of the tournament, so bring your
runners :-)
Depending on the number of Developmental athletes registered
at each age group level, the Developmental athletes may
train exclusively as an entire group of Developmental
athletes, or they may be integrated with the Competitive
Teams when they practice.
The
SEAVC program also tries to finish off the year with an
annual wind-up BBQ and beach volleyball fiesta for ALL
athletes and parents, one day at
the end of the season ...... usually in late May (the actual date is reliant on
weather, so we won't have a specific date until it becomes
much closer to the time). |

SEAVC PROGRAM AT A GLANCE
The
South East Alberta Volleyball Club (SEAVC
- pronounced see- vick) RATTLERS
has been in operation since 1989, and has recently developed an
even closer relationship with the Medicine Hat College
Rattler. Entering the clubs 22nd season,
the SEAVC Rattlers have drawn 1000s of athletes from all of the
citys Jr. and SR. high schools as well as from many of the
surrounding communities throughout South East Alberta and
South West Saskatchewan. Last year, the club provided
11 teams (8
girls teams and 3 boys teams) and had 160 athletes (105
Competitive & 55 Developmental, including more than 40
athletes who were
12 years of age or younger).
The
SEAVC program is designed to incorporate
FUN into the development of individual and team
oriented volleyball skills. The South East Alberta
Volleyball Club is highly competitive with other
programs in Alberta as SEAVC teams have won: 4
Provincial Tier II Championships (18W - 93 & 98, 16W 94,
18M 06); 1 Provincial Tier I Div II Championship (18M); 2
Div II Silver Medals (16W 00, 14W 06, 14W 07) and 1
Bronze (18M 98). The club has also garnered 2 Tier I
Provincial Consolation Championships (18W- 92 & 94).
SEAVC has finished second at the Canadian Western
Championships Div II (16W 02) and the 18U Canadian Open
(18W 03, 18M - '07), and 4th at the Canadian Western
Championships (14W 06). We are looking forward to another
successful season and an even greater turnout of athletes for
2010. The SEAVC program is highly regarded in the province
and by the Alberta Volleyball Association as one of the few programs that promotes grassroots
development younger than 12 years of age and promotes maximum
participation and competitive opportunities for athletes by
providing developmental programs and offering as many teams
as possible.
A number of former SEAVC athletes have
gone on to play on Alberta Provincial Volleyball teams and for
the Medicine Hat College Rattlers or other post-secondary
teams. Former SEAVC athletes who have recently
played for (current MHC Rattler*) the MHC Rattlers volleyball teams
include: Michelle Alberts*, Kim Andjelic, Lauren Bardahl, Alex Chesley, Diana
Davison*, Paige Dean, Tiffany
Donovan, Sage Fahlman*, Lindsay Hazelaar, Desirae
Hemsing, Amanda McGarry*, Kayla
Stephenson*, Julien VanTol*,
Jessi Wilson*, Justin Freitag, Chris
Sawicki and Brett Zinger. Other relatively recent notable SEAVC
graduates having played post-secondary include: Cecilia Enestrom (Rochester Institute of Tech),
Marie Muschiol (LCC), Cindy Black (LCC), Kristie Swetnam (LCC), Joel Schellenberg (Briercrest),
Jessica Zinger (Briercrest), Natalie Weir (College of the Rockies), Janine Merkl (Grande
Prairie College), Jill Walker (Louisiana Tech), Brandie Clark (University
of
Buffalo); Jill Herman (University of Ottawa), Kim Stonehouse
(Montana State), Sara Brunner (Rocky Mountain College -
Billings), Janice-Rose Reinbolt (Minot State University).
MHC Rattlers' coaches (including current and
previous years) who have coached and/or played with
SEAVC include: Sharla Butler, Brandie Clark, Kim Stonehouse,
Sue Edwards, Eve Godin, Wes King-Hunter, Terry Noble
and Stacey Toews. Numerous SEAVC alumni have gone on to coach
with volleyball teams at the school, club and college level,
while a few have managed to gain coaching experience at the
provincial and/or national team levels .
