Till Net Do Us Part

Digby, Keeper of the Rally

Still Married. Still Digging. 🏐💍🐺

Founded: June 2026

Home Court: Wherever there’s sand, a net, and at least one questionable life decision.

Record: Officially Undetermined. Emotionally Undefeated.

Team Colors: Sunscreen White, Sand Beige, and “Was That Ball In?” Blue.

Origins

The team was formed after two longtime partners realized that discussing life was exhausting, but chasing volleyballs across a beach was oddly therapeutic.

Rather than investing in couples counseling, they elected to spend money on tournament entry fees, knee braces, hydration, and post-match tacos.

The results remain under investigation.

Team Philosophy

Till Net Do Us Part believes that every problem can be improved by:

* Better communication
* Better passing
* Better snacks
* Accepting that the wind hates everyone equally

🏐 Demonstrated that a determined 5’1” defender can cover significantly more court than physics suggests is possible.
