Lockers

Columbia College lockers are available for your free use during the semester within each of the sex-appropriate locker rooms. If you use a lock, it must be a lock that you buy from Columbia College Manzanita Bookstore. Also, the long lockers are to be used during class time only – store your belongings in adjacent “cubbies” during non-class time.

 

Recommended Attire

Proper volleyball attire is crucial for a safe and successful class.

·         T-shirts, shorts, sweatshirts, and/or sweats are all acceptable (avoid clothing with zippers)

·         Tennis shoes along with cotton socks will best protect and support your feet. You must have tennis shoes on at all times to participate! Tennis shoes with black soles or high platforms are not acceptable. NO TENNIES – NO PLAY/NO STAY!

·         Limit your jewelry – earrings, necklaces, watches, rings, and bracelets are potential hazards.

·         Place backpacks, jackets, and/or other “carryables” on the bleachers if you do not use a locker.

·         PLEASE – bring your own towel if you choose to shower following your workout.
