Congratulations Anson!

Jul

The “9-Man” Documentary Team is currently accepting votes for their Legends of 9-Man survey and inductees will be featured on their very own throwback trading card!

We are very proud of Anson Wong for being nominated in the MODERN category and representing Toronto Phoenix all throughout the North American 9-man circuit. Anson has been with the club for over 15 years and is truly dedicated to the club. Not only did he play for Toronto Phoenix but he also coached the Women’s A team and was part of the Toronto Phoenix executive committee for many years past. (For those of us that know Anson, he’s also usually responsible for the Phoenix socials and any rookie initiations that he decides to carry out.) This year, he decided to take on a smaller role within the club in order spend more time with his family, Aya and Aleena, but is still strongly committed to helping coach the Men’s A team for the summer. He has definitely contributed a lot to Toronto Phoenix, on and off the court.

If everyone can hop onto the survey and support Anson in this Legends of 9-man survey and give him a vote, that would be amazing! (http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LCBCVBQ). Voting closes in a couple days on the morning of Monday, July 8^th.

Once again, congratulations to Anson for being nominated alongside so many other great volleyball players of the 9-man community and we wish him the best of luck in this contest!

May

Toronto Phoenix would like to thank all the girls who came out to tryout for our team this year! The turnout was great but unfortunately, we are unable to give everyone a spot on the team. However, we are entirely confident that our coaches have made the best selections possible based on the current needs of the team as well as our club and we fully support their decisions.

We’d like to congratulate all the girls who were selected for this year’s team! Practices, starting this week, will be held every Sunday from 7:00pm to 9:30pm at L’amoreaux Community Centre (Kennedy/McNicoll) until otherwise notified. We are looking forward to what surely will be an enjoyable and successful summer for you girls and we hope that you are all as excited as we are!
