NATIONAL PROGRAM: National teams practice twice per week and have an optional third practice. National teams travel to 5-6 in region tournaments and 4-6 multi-day tournaments along the East Coast and beyond. Regional tournaments are in the NY/NJ area. Multi-day tournaments require long-distance travel and take place over 2-3 days. This program is best suited to players who are very serious about volleyball. It is expected and assumed that Club volleyball will be a top priority in terms of commitment, dedication, and extracurricular activities. Players on the National level are expected to fully commit to the program through the National Championships in late June/early July if the team qualifies.
REGIONAL TEAMS: Regional teams will practice once per week with an optional second night of practice and will compete in a full GEVA schedule (approx 5 single-day tournaments in NY/NJ). Regional teams will not attend multi-day tournaments, but will gain significant tournament experience, competing against some of the top regional competition in NY/NJ. It is expected and assumed that Club volleyball will be a top priority in terms of commitment, dedication, and extracurricular activities.
TRYOUT DATES and TIMES: see Age Definitions chart above for appropriate age division.
NOTE: A player who falls into the U14 or U13 category, who is a talented player and would like to try out for the 15 National team, may attend tryouts for 15 National with permission from the Directors.
