The ladies opened against Creole 14 and won handily 25-13 and 25-18 which would lead to their next pool play match vs. These girls were ready for a breakthrough at the CJ Heat 14 Club tournament at Powerzone. The team had a very good season to this point as 14 Red has advanced to playoffs four times of five tournaments in GEVA play.
When speaking of the returning athletes who played for 14 Red last season Coach Klingner remarked 'The returning players have been great in helping the newcomers feel welcomed on the team.' She continued 'During the first few practices the returning players would stay together during warm ups, but as the weeks went on and they all began to get to know each other better, the dividing line disappeared.' This team is a team where some are new to club volleyball and some are products of Phoenix Volleyball NJ's VolleyKids system. April 9 was the date where 14 Red made their season sweeter. But when a team wins a tournament that makes the season that much sweeter.
At the beginning of every season the goal of Phoenix Volleyball NJ teams is to make sure that every player is better than when they arrive.
