ZONI held a very successful Whistle for a Cause Clinic at Niles West High School in Skokie on March 12, 2011. 141 people attended, and over $3,000 was raised to purchase volleyball equipment for schools trying to enhance their volleyball programs but struggling to secure even the most basic equipment.

Thank you very much to Niles West High School, our clinicians, and everyone who made a donation!

It is my pleasure to announce to you that we have within our membership the IHSA Boys Volleyball Official of the Year. Looie Green was presented this award at the Officials Conference held this past weekend in Peoria. I know that some of you were down there to witness this and offer your congratulations to Looie.

Those who know Looie know that he is not one to stand out in the spotlight or look for this type of accolade, no matter how well-deserved they may be. He is a person who goes about the business of officiating and does a fantastic job, always looking to improve both himself and his partner. I would like to ask you to take a few moments and send Looie a quick note of congratulations on his award. For those of you that do not have it, Looie’s e-mail address is:

Thank you for your help in supporting one of our own.
