 Open gyms are posted on the calendar - Fridays 6-9 and Sunday 6-9.  Medical and liability forms are available on the front page of the web site and it is $10 per player.  Hope to see you in the gym!

We have moved from a group page to a "fan" page to make communications more efficient!  We'll be posting open gym info, program offerings, etc, so please be sure to follow the link below to "like" our page and stay IN THE KNOW!  Please suggest the page to anyone in the volleyball community!! Thanks for all your wonderful support!

Check out our 2011 Winter Clinic Series, VolleyFutures program (girls in grades 6-8) and VolleyMinis program (girls grades 3-5). Info on the programs can be found on the Clinic and Grades 3-8 links on the left!

* Wave play - This year, GEVA has moved to "wave" play in an effort to streamline tournament play and make the day more manageable for everyone.  If your team is playing on Saturdays, sometimes you will be in a morning wave (9am start, approx 3 pm finish). Afternoon waves will start at 3pm and run until approximately 9pm.  Sunday tournaments will generally only have a morning wave. 

Format - the girls will PLAY and WORK (and be OFF at some tournaments). It is always a good idea to have some reading. homework, music, etc (for parents and for kids).  ALL players are expected to share equally in the work responsibilities.  Generally, if the team has a work assignment at the end of the tournament, it is expected that all players will remain on site until all team members are able to leave, even if the player is not working (ONE TEAM attitude).

*Seating - It is our advice that all spectators keep folding chairs in their car for all tournaments. SOME venues will have seating, SOME will not. Always be prepared!

*Food/drinks - some venues will have food,  but most will not.  Some venues are in close proximity to food and some are not.  Unless you know the area has decent lunch options (Subway, etc), please plan to bring healthy food and snacks for players. Also, bring a sufficient amount of water as it may not be available on site.  Team reps have sent emails regarding how teams will handle food/snacks for day tournaments so please email your team parent if you have any questions.

Hello - We have had a few inquiries about how we will proceed if there is inclement weather.  Unless the roads are not driveable in our area, we WILL hold practice/tournaments, etc.  Our weather policy is that we will post ON THIS FRONT PAGE if we are ever going to cancel a program - usually atleast 90 min prior to the start of the program.

SAFETY IS FIRST. If you are not able to get to us safely from where you live, that is OK. Please just send us an email to that regard. 

We look forward to seeing you!
