The balls donated were very good quality. The balls don't lose air like other volleyballs. My students are happy because these volleyballs are easy to use and look very nice as well. \r\n\r\nI can't wait to get into mini games. In the mini games we will be practicing all the skills learned such as bumping, setting and serving.
