And when the Summer Games of 2000 rolls around in Australia, he is hoping to be one of the athletes to wear Canada's colours. A member of Canada's National Volleyball team from 1994-97, the Orono resident came within an eyelash of representing representing the country at the Olympic Games held in Atlanta in 1996. Twice, Canada were one win away from claiming one of the 12 available spots. But on both occasions, they failed to garner garner a victory, and- were forced to watch the Olympics from home. Following the disappointment in 1997, he set his "bump, set, spike," aspirations aside, and returned to college. But this past winter, those aspirations changed. A rule change rekindled his interest in volleyball at the international level, and after a phone call to the national team coach, he was back on the court in Winnipeg along with 30 other players trying to secure one of the 14 spots on Canada's team. Though a little more confident at the tryouts then the first time around five years ago, there was still some sense of uncertainty, says Reid. "In a lot of ways, it was a lot more scary," said the 25-year-old from his parent's home in Orono. "I hadn't played competitively in a long time, and I knew that this would be my last chance to play on the national team: Plus, it's a completely different program." His three months of training prior to the selection camp paid off, and Reid was again a member of Canada's national program. The rule change that prompted Reid out of retirement was the designation of a player on the court called a libero. The player can substitute into a game at any time, but stays in the back row and is a defensive specialist. The libero isn't allowed to serve, set, or spike during a rally. , "It's a rule that is well suited to my game," said the Clarke High School graduate. "The game has changed so much since five or six years ago when I played. Back then, there was no place for a guy under 6'5". That's one of the reasons I left the national team because I was getting getting overwhelmed at the net in international games." While Reid plans to join the team in early July, he is looking ahead to playing at the World University Games in Spain, as well as the Pan-Am Games. In addition to a number of Olympic qualifying tournaments that will be held in the fall and winter, one tournament in particular has been circled on the calendar of the Canadian team. In January, Reid says Canada will have its "most realistic chance" of qualifying for the Olympics during a tournament tournament in Winnipeg. He expects it will come down to a showdown between Canada and the United States to see who advances to Australia. "I'm really optimistic about this team because the top players are in their prime," he says. Dustin Reid "Before, we had a lot of veteran players who were small but skilled. This time around we have a lot better athletes." Reid is the second player from this area to make the men's national team. Steve Brinkman, of Bowmanvillc, is also a national national team player.
