Parent/Player Preseason Information

What is Club Volleyball? If this is the first time you have considered Club Volleyball as an option for the athlete in your family, please click on this LINK to view CEVA’s Parent Guide to Club Volleyball. This guide is essential and contains helpful information that will continue to be updated as the season gets closer. NW Elite Volleyball Club is looking for Boys & Girls to participate in the 2016-2017 club volleyball season!

(Tryout Schedule at end of slideshow) How Do Tryouts Work? (Tryout Schedule at end of slideshow) USA Volleyball (the national governing body for the sport of Volleyball) specifies a specific date for clubs to hold tryouts for players seeking to play for the club of their choice. Each age division typically tries out at a different time and/or on a different date. Club volleyball is competitive. Players are selected for teams based on skill level. Athletes of similar or equal skill level are typically placed on the same teams. Each club typically has a limited number of teams per age bracket. Unfortunately, not all kids that tryout will be selected for a team.

USA Volleyball has put together a chart that will help you determine what age division your athlete should try out for. Your child’s age division will also be printed on their CEVA membership card. (also listed in the Parent Guide to Club Volleyball pg 7)

Part-Time VS. Full-Time Teams Part-time teams typically have one 2-hour practice a week and generally attend one tournament per month. Full-time teams typically have two 2-hour practices per week and generally attend two tournaments per month.
