Hi all, it has been suggested that a free agent team be created for players who's wards do not have teams.
If your ward has a team you must play for the, no matter what, if it does not you may play for any team that has room for you, once you get established on a team you must continue to play for them the rest of the season, Unless there are unusual cercumstance, than talk to the athletic directors.
For now the YSA singles ward is in need of extra players I suggest free agent players contact them, if they are overwhelmed with players we can split them into two teams.
The contact for the singles ward is

2015 SAMS LDS men's/young men's basketball
Hi again,
Hope you all had a great Christmas season, We did, just got back from Texas.
The basketball coach's/players meeting is next Thursday, Jan 15, 7:00 at the Anoka stake center, the games start the following week.
At the meeting we will discuss rules, how we will run the games, who will officiate, and set up the first week's schedule.
The men will play all their games Thursday nights, the young men will play most of their games Thursday nights with a few games Saturday mornings, ( The Spanish ward has mutual Thursday nights, and some wards travel long distances making Thursday night games difficult)
So we need to know what teams your ward wants in the leagues and the young men's teams need to let us know if they prefer Thursday nights, Saturday Mornings or if they can do both.
Remember high school players who are Baptized members of your ward will be allowed to join your team after their season is over. However only one high school player from your team on the court at a time.
See you next week.

2014 SAMS LDS men's volleyball champions, Maple Grove
Congrats Maple Grove 2014 SAMS LDS volleyball champions
This is an unusual team, Besides RJ who is 6'3 or so, and is a novice volleyball player, the length of the players go 6'1", 6'0", 5'9", 5'9", 5'6" 4'10"! Some have played together for 40 years. (or so). But very unselfish, great court coverage, and a line up that takes advantage of the player's strengths and hides the weaknesses.

2014 SAMS LDS men's Volleyball tournament (continued)
Here is the remaining schedule for the tournament, rewritten to be easier to follow.
NOTE NSP/Blaine 1 play at 6:30, all games at the Anoka stake center.
There have been some disputes about rules, here are some clearificatioins:
1) When the ball is approaching the top of the net, players from the recieving team may not touch the ball unless:
a) Part of the ball has crossed the plain of the net extended.
b) The attacking team has used all 3 hits.
c) The attacking team is attempting to hit the ball over the net.
2) On a serve, the receiving team may not return the ball unless it has dropped below the plain of the top of the net.
3) Except for the server, all players must be totally in bounds when the ball is served.
Good luck!

Hi Bracketologists
Hi you hard core bracket study people, I am sure you are wondering why several games for the second Thursday, have two potential start times.
The explanation is that we are following the mandate to have the tournament teams from the bottom of the standings play each other first, so they have a couple competitive match's. I can see that, So the top teams get byes. That coupled with the fact that we have an uneven number of teams creates a situation, which is game #11 NSP vs winner of game #6 so NSP with no loses and winner of 6 with one loss.If things go as expected and NSP (tied for first in the league) wins the other team is eliminated and the tournament goes as planned, however should the winner of game 6 win than we have two one loss teams creating all sorts of havoc. Thus the contingency start times.
I am glad I will not be refereeing game 11 since as one of the athletic directors and tournament directors we are neutral, but for this one game for the sake of start times I hope NSP has a good match. :-)
g
P.S. Oh dear, what if we are the "other team!!!?"
good luck to everyone, especially NSP game 11 (only) :-)

Volleyball tournament update
Hi all, well it is finally here, after Thanks Giving Wekend we can all waddle onto the court for the tournament
Eligability rules:
1). Any baptized member of your ward can play, he does not have to have played during the season.
2) Female players have the same requirements as the males.
3) Non members and Free Agent members (Baptised members who's ward does not have a team) must have played at least once during the regular season. Where they live does not matter.
4) Students from your Ward and returned Missionaries are eligible to play.
Tournament rules:
1) Because the Anoka building is not available and the Minneapolis building has things hanging over the court we have chosen to play all the first round games at the St. Paul Stake Center, so we will be playing a lot of ball, should we get way behind and a match goes to a third game we might shorten the game to first to 15, otherwise the match's are 2 of 3 first to 25, win by 2 or first to 30.
2) The games will be self officiated, like the regular season, unless refs. Are dreamed necessary .
3) Have your teams arive early, so we can start early if the previous match finished early. We are scheduled to play until almost 11 P.M. As it is
Good luck
