How long do 2-set freshman volleyball matches last (in fcsp)?

[Anonymous]

We are new to volleyball and my daughter made the freshman team. Curious how long to plan for the volleyball matches and whether or not we can balance with club soccer practices.

We managed to balance JV volleyball and club soccer for the fall season of DD's FCPS freshman year. She may have only missed one or two soccer practices due to volleyball matches (likely, away games).

If most schools follow the same scheduling, VB practice is likely right after school. On game days, freshman matches probably start at 5:30 and might extend until 6:30, if they go to three sets.

What could trip up folks is that some schools only have one gym. This means that the freshman and JV matches cannot start at the same time (e.g., 5:30). In those cases, JV starts at 6:30, and varsity start at 7:30. If the freshman and JV teams use the same bus for away matches, the freshman team will have to stay through the completion of the JV match.

My daughter played freshman last year and had a requirement to stay through the JV match and first varsity set.

For both home and away games to boot.

Sometimes the JV and freshmen games are played simultaneously b/c the gyms are big enough to partition- LBSS, South County come to mind
