Games for the Snye Adult Coed Volleyball League were held Wednesday nights from October 2016 to March 2017. There were 8 teams in league who play each other twice – this determines league champions.

This season Snye Wreckers lost one game all season landing them league champions. This team was Diane Lazore's team – Diane, Kelby, Lance, Kiio, Heather, Myles, Sabrina and Bryton.

Second place went to Precious Boots, Kahawanion David and their team.

3rd place went to St. Regis River Rats

4th went to Kevin Lazore's team

After the league champions were determined the league was split into two divisions forming A and B groups. The four teams in each group then played each other according to standings for a one game playoff challenge. In the playoffs the fourth place beat out the first place team and the third place beat out the second place team in the A division and moved on to face each other in the finals - resulting in the St. Regis River Rats winning the A division playoff champions.

In the B division the same format was followed and the battle was between Wanna Pizza This and Katie Boots and her teammates.

The league is run by Diane Lazore at a small cost of $10 a player for the season. This money is used for championship games. The registration fee is used to purchase trophies and pizza, cake and refreshments for participants on the last day of games. The referees do not get paid and volunteer their time. The league is set up to keep adults active throughout the winter months. Sportsmanship, honesty and fair play are a big message that is also pushed from the organizer.

"In sports I feel it is important to have fun, be honest, keep bad attitudes out of the game. After all, you're there to have fun, be active and laugh. I try to stress the fact that you will have more fun this way. All sports can still be competitive if you stay positive and encourage your team throughout the games. I try to promote this throughout all sports activities I organize. After all, we are not professionals but we can still give it what we got and smile when we're done," said Diane.

"A" division playoffs second place: Carlene Lazore, Benny Herne, Keena King, Kevin Lazore, Tiana Back and Tatum Lafrance.

"I would like to thank the Snye Recreation and Mae Green for giving us floor time in their beautifully renovated gym. They have recently put in a beautiful new floor, repainted the walls and set us up with a much-needed new volleyball stand and nets.

We also had a donation of four new pro quality volleyballs. Donor wishes to stay anonymous."
