Calling all Palm Beach County FL, John Prince Park Volleyball players! As an avid volleyball player and a part of a vibrant community of over 200 individuals who frequent the courts at John Prince Park in Lake Worth Beach, FL, we play 5-6 days a week, rain or shine. Our passion for this sport is shared by many school teams that practice here regularly.

However, our courts need improvement to ensure they are suitable for everyone who uses them.

1. We request the installation of an adjustable pole system to allow easy height adjustment between men's and women's games. This would not only make our games more inclusive but also increase efficiency during practices and matches. Suggested adjustable pole system to adjust between mens and womens heights: https://www.volleyballusa.com/monson-slider-quick-adjust-poles/

2. Installing permanent doubles official court lines do that players don’t have to setup their own lines in order to play: https://www.volleyballusa.com/2-inch-pro-short-court-boundary-lines/

3. Installing permanent antennaes

4. Updating nets to have official volleyball nets: https://www.volleyballusa.com/ml4-4-pro-beach-net/ (Meets AVP, Collegiate and High School Standards)

5. Replacing dirty sand with cleaner sands so that when playing you aren’t covered in mud after playing

6. Installing showers
7. Installing a system to prevent balls from going into the highway

Improving the volleyball courts will be enhancing our gaming experience and have broader implications too. Regular physical activity like volleyball can significantly reduce stress levels and promote social interaction among community members - both crucial aspects in today's fast-paced world where mental health issues are on the rise. Please post any pictures and suggestions to the petition comments.
