ROGUEvember Updates (11/7/23)

New Assistant Coach! We are pleased to welcome Megan Raber to the 18U team as Assistant Coach! Megan has coached and played Volleyball (and softball) for years and lives in Hartville with her husband Ryan and their two daughters, Cailin and Malin! Megan is a self-described “Mom, Cookier, CrossFitter, Volleyballer, Traveler, Truth Teller, Dog Lover, Fun Seeker.” We can’t wait for the 18U girls to meet Megan Raber!

Contract Offers go out Sunday! On November 12, we are offically-allowed to make new roster spot offers (contracts) to Volleyball players for our 16U and 18U teams. Hopefully most of you already know where we stand, and you might want to check your e-mail on Sunday morning.

18U Team is Full Already? Yeah, I guess that’s a thing. We are hoping for a landslide of official commitments on Sunday, but the 18U team is looking ready to rock. It’s been wonderful to hear from parents and players from Hartville, Lodi, Louisville, Akron, Mogadore, North Canton, and Uniontown over the past three months.

16U Team Needs Players? We are still looking for 2-3 players for our 16U team and might announce an additional tryout date in mid-November. This team already has an exciting young core of six players (at least), but we will be looking for commitments from 2-3 more who could add talent where we need it. If you – or someone you know – would fit some of these criteria, text Gary (Club Director) at 330-685-7255.

“Rogue-Vember” a trademarked phrase? No, but we should consider it. Do any of you know how to legally apply for and reserve a trademark? We aren’t kidding, are we?

Walsh University Player-Coaches? Yes, we are thrilled to partner with several current Walsh University Volleyball players who will help both of our teams (and coaching staff) with skills and player development. Currently, Walsh is dominating much of the NCAA Division 2 landscape (24-3, 15-1) in the midst of an incredible season! If you haven’t been to a Walsh or Malone volleyball match yet, you’re missing out!

Free ROGUE330 Workout at 4.40 Performance! Next Tuesday night (11/14 at 7pm), 4.40 Performance is hosting a free conditioning workout for all Rogue commits and offers. We would love to see you there! 4.40 Performance helps train and condition and develop volleyball players all over our region and they do a wonderful job of customized workouts – we are honored to join them!

ROGUE330 Practice Playlist – Songs Needed – We are making a workout playlist for background music at our open gyms. As you might imagine, we already have enough Taylor Swift songs to make Travis Kelce proud. What other songs should we add to the list – to keep us moving and energized during open gyms? Message us on Instagram at the ROGUE330 page with your ideas! (@rogue330volleyball on IG). OR your parents can find us at the ROGUE330 Facebook page ;).
