Our 13U Girls had an amazing energy heading into the 13U Challenge Cup Trillium B at Conestoga College this weekend.  The morning games were fun

 

to watch as it was obvious the girls had a confidence about them and were having fun.  Winning all but one set, they were in a great spot for the afternoon games.

The semi final had some tight sets against Milton Iron Edge.  The parents watching were on the edge of their seats!  The girls pulled ahead in the tiebreaker match for the win at 16 – 14.  In the final, up against Scorpions, the girls had trouble finding their energy for the first few minutes, but turned it around quickly to keep the Scorpions working for their lead.  Our Tigers Black team walked away with a well deserved Silver medal and big smiles to match.  Way to go Tigers Black!!

The 2017-2018 season is in full swing and our Tigers are competing each weekend against a variety of clubs throughout Ontario. Not only are the Tigers competing in the Ontario Volleyball Association, some of our Tigers teams are participating in Tigers Invitational matches and the South West Volleyball League.

Our coaches, parents, and club executive are volunteering their time to help provide a fun and active opportunity for the youth of our community. Not only are these people helping with the tournaments, they are dedicating their time to get these young athletes ready to compete by driving them to practice, teaching them nutrition, and ensuring they understand what is needed to be a healthy active player.

Be sure to visit an upcoming tournament in your area to see what it means to be a Tiger.

The Waterloo Tigers 17U Girls Black team participated in the OVA Provincial Cup this past weekend. They seemed to cruise through the round robin matches defeating Niagara Rapids Summit (25-15, 25-18) and Niagara Fury 16U (25-17, 26-24), leaving them with a longer rest period after lunch. This extra time off helped propel them to victory over Simcoe Extreme (25-22, 25-13) in the quarter final match.  The semi-final matchup pitted our Tigers against the winner of Pool B, SVC Stingers, and our Tigers swept them handily 25-8, 25-13.

The hardest matchup of the afternoon was with the top ranked team coming into this tournament – a 16u group from a rival club – Scorpions Fusion.

The final match went to three sets where the Scorpions prevailed. The scores were: 25-18, 21-25, 15-11 in favour of the Scorpions leaving the Tigers with a Silver medal.

Congratulations Tigers! This is a wonderful start to the season!
