With each knock, set and spike at the young men’s state secondary school volleyball competition, the energy and fervor escalated.

“Goodness, I love it, those folks have such a lot of force,” said Michelle Bellfield, a parent of a Blaine player.

Andover senior Tommy Kelly said he plays since it’s physically difficult yet additionally fun.

“It’s a game that everybody loves and everybody plays in rec center class outside so it’s a local area game and I just went gaga for it,” he said.

Young men’s volleyball is filling in fame, there are as of now in excess of 40 groups across the state and many players.

Thursday morning, Lead representative Tim Walz made a trip to watch a game.

“About 85% of these understudies who play men’s volleyball aren’t in other secondary school exercises and that is the thing that we need them to do on the grounds that we realize when you’re associated with a secondary school movement your grades go up, your culmination rates go up and those things,” Walz said.

Notwithstanding a colossal push to authorize young men’s volleyball as a Minnesota State Secondary School Group sport, the MSHSL opposed it simply this spring. It’s something fans don’t comprehend.

“There are some incredible competitors around here and it should be an authorized game for youngsters, it simply gives everybody another choice,” said Blaine parent Ozzie Carbajal, who added that his child will play volleyball at the sea shore for eight to nine hours per day.

It’s actually similar to females breaking into male-ruled games, so I’m glad that it’s beginning to come out and be perceived as something worth being thankful for,” Bellfield added.
