Robert "Bob" Powers

When PowerZone opened up, Bob Powers was retired and spent his Monday mornings helping me putting the gym back together after a Sunday adult GEVA tournament.  I met Bob thru Barb, his daughter,  from the PowerZone Get Over It - adult GEVA team.

We are the sum of our experiences in life and one just feels special having known and met someone like Bob Powers.  I can be confident in saying anyone who has met Bob would feel this way.  Bob passed away on Thursday, January 12, 2012.  For those who desire, memorial donations may be made to the food pantry of New Beginnings Christian Church, 263 Brick Boulevard, Brick, NJ 07724

Club Volleyball for Adults

Description  The program is for adults age 19 and up. We are planning for a rolling 6 week schedule. With one 2 hr practice per week and 2 weekend tri-match competitions.  Individuals can join as "free agents" or groups of 8 may join as a team.  Free agents will go thru try-outs and selected for groups of 8 for practice and teams.  This is a "serious" but fun program. Keep it fun, we intend for this to be good volleyball at the right level. The seasons are short just 6 weeks and it might take a season or two to find the right team or group of people.  $145/person.

Individuals  Individuals who do not have a team may join as free agents and be placed with a group to practice and play together. You may also want to organize a team. Individuals can select time slots that are available. Let us know if you are interested in being a team captain! Teams will have 2-3 Outsides, 2-3 Middles and 2-3 Right Sides (Op/S).
