      Dress Code/Attire

      When playing  volleyball, it is important to dress comfortably and having the proper sports equipment can help you feel more at ease. Below find some guidance to help you get prepared:

      • Good indoor court shoes – You will be able to avoid slipping and sliding accidents if your shoes are well-equipped with traction.
      • Basic gym attire – When moving quickly, it is advantageous to avoid baggy sweat pants or shorts.
      • Good sports bra
      • Knee pads – Some volleyball players swear by their knee pads, whereas others claim that they impede their ability to move freely on the court.

       

      MVL weekly games will be women only.  You are free to dress as you feel comfortable inside the gym, remembering to maintain proper coverage of your awrah*. ECIC requests that you still maintain proper modesty outside of the gym to respect the sanctity of the Masjid (Muslim Place of Worship).

      *The term ‘awrah comes from Arabic. In short, it means the parts of the body that should be covered.

      FAQ

      Can I register at any time?

      Registration is typically open only for the 6  weeks leading up to the next season and registration closes 2 weeks prior. Once registration closes, you will not be able to register until the next season.

      Do you already need to know how to play volleyball?
      Our goal is to provide a safe space to learn, play, and grow the game of volleyball. While having experience can be beneficial it is not neccessary to join our league. You can learn as you grow in the sport!
      Do you offer scholarships?
      Yes, we occasionally offer partial scholarships based on availability of funds. Scholarships are offered on a need basis. When completing registration, you will be asked about your need. You will be contacted if funds become available.

      Do you offer discounts?

      Yes we do offer discount to our Sustaining ME members.

       

      Why is the location so far?

      The beautiful community of ECIC has built a state of the art facility for the entire Metro Atlanta Ummah to use. While we understand it can be a drive for a lot of our women. Using this facility allows us the ability to keep our dollars in our community AND gives a safe space for Muslimahs.
