The Walton volleyball program is more than just the varsity teams at the high school, and next Saturday, Aug. 1, aspiring players from middle school can try out.
Those tryouts will take place from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at TK Volleyball (1425 Market Blvd Suite 100 C, Roswell). The cost is $15 per person, and you can sign up by clicking here.

Earlier this week the Georgia High School Association announced that football season will start two weeks later. The other fall sports, including volleyball, will start their seasons on time, but schedules have not yet been released.
All fall sports teams can begin preseason practices on Aug. 1, but they must practice social distancing, will be encouraged to wear masks and must follow sanitizing guidelines as well.
Last year Walton defeated Lassiter for its fifth consecutive Georgia state championship in volleyball and 14th overall. Fitzgerald was later honored as one of the Top 100 high school coaches in any sport by MaxPreps, a high school sports website.
