We are looking for line judges for the High School Volleyball tournament at the Pentagon on Saturday, September 26th. You would be paid $10/game and you would get into the tournament for free. If needed, you could also ride the bus with the team to get there and back. It can be a long day, so we are hoping to find 2 individuals that would be willing to help out the Hawks. Please reach out the AD Jill Osterberg or Coach Cassidy Keller, if you are available to help. Thank you for your consideration.
