OM TIPS FR TONY Fall 2010 • Check your gutters and downspouts. Clear leaves and other debris. Look for loose or disconnected joints. Reattach and fasten securely if needed. • Cover your air conditioner with some polyethylene and a piece of plywood on top. Put some weight on it to keep the plywood in place for the winter. • Check all the doors to the outside. See that they shut tightly and that the weather stripping around the frame is in good condition. Check this page for Tony Bravo's courses.

When you step into the gym for your volleyball class, you will be greeted by your instructor Newton Noor, a very personable, mild-mannered fellow, but do not let that fool you – he is passionate about volleyball! Having played and coached himself at the university level in England, Newton brings a wealth of experience to the court. “At 5 feet 6 inches, I was always the setter, but I liked that position because the setter is in charge of the game and I am a control freak out on the court!”, he says.

He originally began teaching beginner volleyball in the OCDSB’s General Interest Program 12 years ago, and his participants have evolved into intermediate players who want to improve their skills. His classes consist of about 75% drills (volleying, setting, the basics), and about 25% playing time. A teacher at Merivale High School by day, Newton says it is totally different teaching adults. “They want to be there”, he says, “and that makes it really enjoyable. The best feedback I get is that my students keep coming back year after year”. Newton says that the average participant in his class is 25 years old and female. It seems more women than men tend to sign up. Many of his students use his class as a stepping stone to go on to a higher level of play – some have even gone on to play in the top tier of the OCVL, (Ottawa-Carleton Volleyball League). Please check this page for the details of what Newton will be teaching this Fall/Winter.
