Wallyball is volleyball played on a racquetball court with three to five players on a side. Players use the side walls to create angles, but the ball cannot hit the ceiling or the back wall of the opposing team. It is a terrific aerobic activity that tones muscles and improves coordination and balance and it’s great fun.

Come visit to see if this game is for you. Both men and women are welcome, and tryouts are encouraged. We look forward to seeing you. Water Volleyball Pres.

John Lesko 248-231-0546 azjl1946@gmail.com Recreational play Sun., Thu., 1-3 PM Advanced play Mon. 1-3 PM, Wed., 10 AM-Noon, Desert Oasis pool

The Water Volleyball group can’t be stopped. When the Desert Oasis pool is closed for repairs, the water volleyball players move to dry land. The indoor racquetball court is ideal for play when the pool is closed, or it is too cold for play in the pool. Either way, it is fun with loads of laughter. If you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced, you will be welcomed by the existing members and encouraged to play. Give us a try, you won’t be sorry.
