Badger Region Championships
Team overall record: 6-0
Mar 21, 2026: Day 1 (original post)
Today, we kickoff the Badger Region Championships, and I'm looking forward to seeing if ccvbc can win back-to-back tournaments.
Ya boi mr. meff played most of the minutes at middle in the first match against Azuri Perforamnce. The team is really coming together, and jeff's performance this morning was the most consistently excellent stretch of volleyball I've ever seen him play.
crosscourt plays unselfishly, within a system, and by utilizing that system so well, it allows for hardworkers like noah to step in and play his role. He played that role well today as they swept Azuri: 25-16, and 25-11 (2-0).
Sorry, I just missed the ignition of thor's hammer + hand. Clark will fuck you up on some hammer of god shit and he did just that in a close one against Inferno: 25-23, and 25-23 (2-0).
Earlier this morning during the first match, I had the chance to chat with a new mom and dad who recently joined Crosscourt Volleyball Club, and seeing how well they played in the second match, it hammered home a point I made to them both (their son is on the 14's team): they play hard, they play for each other, they get better, and they have a hell of a good time doing it.
As a grown child, I am not legally allowed to ignore the 6-7 Gods. See something, say something.
They closed out the 3rd match against Fox Valley Performance: with another win, 25-18, and 25-5 (2-0).
In victory, they celebrate that fun.
On Wednesday ccvbc split two matches against the 18's of FVP in a scrimmage where they played up in competition. Playing against their same age bracket, and the FVP 17's, it was a different story, one where they controlled the pace of play the entire way, and walked away with a comfortable victory.
......oops, happened again.......
To close Saturday, we sit in a good position, controlling our own destiny.
Just as the God's have prescribed.
Mar 22, 2026: Day 2 (original post)
On day two of the Badger Region Championships we started off with Southport, and after a slowish start, they cruised through each set to victory: 25-16, 25-15 (2-0).
These bois absolutely destroy the ball. We put it on 'em.
jeff meff got quite a bit on run in the early match, and he took advantage of all of his opportunities.
While he's still learning how to line up his body with the strike, he'll go up and get one if he has too. Fun image.
Sam and the ccvbc crew took on Inferno once again, and after inexplicably falling behind 1-8 in the first set, they ran the table for another victory - advancing to the championship game: 25-20, 25-13 (2-0).
I cannot believe they trust this guy with any kind of scorekeeping. He'd be the first to admit that might be a mistake. And yet, we love him all the same. Wait......
......it happened again......
To close the day, our heros took on Club W for all the marbles. Well, spoiler alert, they were Club L today. It was a tight and intense match throughout, and also one that the bois controlled just about the entire time. Champions: 25-22, 25-21 (2-0).
Plus, let's do it for the 'gram.
There's coach giving squad the congratulations they so richly deserve. I thought last year's team was fun, but this one is shaping up to be my favorite yet. They genuinely love each other and I love them for it.
We close the tournament with me, the immortal man, and the new icon to be used whenever our heros return victorious, covered in glory.
