i am in a high school girl's volleyball team. I'm fortunate to attend a private school with no mask mandate. Every other team we play againt has to wear masks while playing!
I didnt know if our team would win any games but so far we are winning all of them!
I can't imagine playing with a mask on.
DO NOT LISTEN TO THE LIES IN THE MEDIA. Masks ABSOLUTELY effect your air intake, but in normal circumstances it's barely noticeable.
However, if you are engaging in high-cardio activity like sports, volleyball, or in my case, martial arts, it makes a MASSIVE difference. In high activity sports, our bodies are like engines, breathing in and out with each motion. But a mask keeps you breathing slow and steady just so you can breathe AT ALL through the SWEAT-SOAKED face diaper.
You have a MASSIVE advantage over your opponents by virtue of not having masks. Also being a private school you are probably a smarter, stronger, more tight-nit bunch, too.
Have fun, and work hard! Peace and God bless.
