DIGGIN’ IT IN DURANGO

This weekend will be full of excitement with the tournament soon to be underway. Smack Sportswear is proud to be the sponsor of such a huge event that will bring together the community at large.

But Smack could not have done this without the collaboration with Terene M. Foutz, Executive Director at Four Corners Volleyball Club. “Smack Sportswear is a fantastic event and program partner, and has been with Four Corners VBC every step of the away, across twelve years. Prompt service, great pricing, and customization, allows for a strong partnership, and mutual growth in volleyball. We greatly appreciate our relationship with Smack Sportswear, and plan to continue growing with them, servicing our community volleyball kids.”

The tournament will start on Saturday but not before some great events that Foutz has put together.  “It’s an honor to bring this event to Durango, Bayfield and Ignacio, as many teams now include the Diggin’ It as a primary event on their USAVolleyball Schedules.

Over 56 of participating volleyball teams will compete for their division championships in FLC Whalen and the FLC Student Life Center, ” Terene Foutz, FCVBC Director and Head Coach.
