Miles Page #3

Synopsis: Miles (newcomer Tim Boardman) is a high school senior who wants nothing more than to graduate, leave his rural town and move to the city to enrol in film school. Unfortunately, Miles' father has squandered his college fund on his mistress. With no cash and staring a dead-end future right in the face, Miles searches desperately for a way out, coming across a volleyball scholarship program that exists between his high school and the well-regarded Loyola University in Chicago. The catch? The only volleyball team that exists at his school is a girls' team.

A little more energy,

that's right.

Faster, faster!

One that brings the

best out of my girls.

Uh, all of my students.

Higher, higher, higher!

That's it, come on!

Come on, Penelope, do it!

I take this sport

very seriously,

and I expect you

all will as well.

A spot on this team

does not come cheap.

Ballet class.

So if you've come to play,

I want you to play hard.

But I also want you to

learn how to play well.

This is where we see

what you're made of.

This is where you bump

your distractions,

set your targets,

and spike your goals.

Not the worst I've seen.

Nice work, keep it up.

What are you doing

out there, Candace?

If you make the cut,

your name will

be posted outside my

office after tryouts.

I want those butts lower,

lower, lower those butts.

Lower.

If your name is not on the list,

that's it.

No tears, no phone

calls from your parents.

All right?

I wish you the best of luck,

ladies... and miles!

Yes!

Awe snap!

Love the enthusiasm.

I'm sorry,

I didn't see you there.

Most people don't.

Oh, before you pop a chub,

you should know that

everyone made the team.

How do you know?

Well eight people tried out,

eight people made the team.

Six on the court, two

on the bench, duh.

I'm miles, by the way.

Penelope.

Oh, but my friends call me P.

You can call me P.

Oh okay, um...

ooh, parental release forms.

Thanks, P.

You got it, girl.

Refill?

Can you please just sign it?

Why would you wanna

join a girl's team

when there's so many boy sports.

I like volleyball.

Hey, I know the

football coach.

I bet he'd let

you be the kicker.

Do you want me to ask him?

No mom, that's okay just...

I don't know honey,

with dad gone

this sure seems

like a lot for you.

Mom, that's why I wanna play.

It's something to get

my mind off of him.

Okay.

It'll be fun,

it's just a game.

Here you go.

Hey miles.

Yeah.

Tell everyone I'm doing okay.

Okay.

Okay.

We want everyone in this room,

in this school,

and in this town,

coming out to support us.

Let me hear you, Pondley high!

Here is the moment you've

all been waiting for!

Let me introduce you to the

1999 girls varsity

volleyball team!

Come on out!

So come on out for our first

game of the season against...

Walton's a fag!

Calvary high on...

Who said that?

Who said that?

For that, Mr. Roberts,

you can see me after.

So yeah, come and support us.

We'll see you next week.

Hey, let's hear it for

the lady warriors huh?!

So I went over there

and her delightful mother

Rhonda answered the door.

I felt like I was

talking to her bodyguard.

And then, she had

the nerve to slam

the door in my face right after

she told me that I needed help.
