MISSION STATEMENT

To provide affordable club based teams where interested

and motivated girls age 8 to 18 can participate, receive fundamental training in a challenging environment which will increase their volleyball knowledge and improve their individual skills.

PHILOSOPHY

The South Valley Volleyball Association believes that participation on a club team is possible for the majority, not the elite few. This is accomplished through low overhead operating costs, a trained and loyal staff interested in individual players growth and development and by a player’s commitment and dedication.

We strongly believe that it is vital for the youth of today to live a balance life by pursuing and participating in a wide variety of sports, recreation, cultural events and interests. We believe that life outside of volleyball is not only possible but crucial to the physical, mental, psychological and social development of a well rounded individual.

PLAYER RESPONSIBILITIES

COMMITMENTS
A commitment to a South Valley Volleyball Club Team is a commitment to participate in all scheduled club events for the entire season from November 1, 2006 through June 14, 2007. Not all players are invited to play for South Valley Volleyball and available spots are only offered to those who are willing to commit for the entire season.

ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENT

South Valley Volleyball Association, Inc. recognizes the value of education and therefore differentiates between extra-curricular and education. We demand that each player remains current and in good standings with their class work. Players must maintain a 2.3 G.P.A. with no more than one (1) “U”, or equivalent, to be eligible to participate in all practices and tournaments.

Each player on a club volleyball team is required to have this Grade Check Eligibility Form completed by the 15th of every month. Player’s fulfilling this requirement will be allowed to participate in all club team practices, games, scrimmages and club related functions. Player’s missing the eligibility requirement will have limited participation with their club team while they improve in their school work. Players that fail to improve their grades will be asked to leave the team so that they may focus on their education.

PHYSICAL
Every player joining a club team will be required to submit a complete physical examination performed by a doctor no older than 90 days to show that the individual is physically capable to participate in the South Valley Volleyball Club Team activities.

Practices
One ninety minute block of time has been established each week for all teams. Due to intense drills, scrimmages and workouts we strongly recommend that players complete their homework before attending practice. Coaches may occasionally opt to have players arrive earlier, or stay later, in order to provide time for a strength and conditioning program or extra practice time.

Practice is where most skill development is accomplished so it is crucial that players and parents make practice a priority by arriving early and working hard during the practice time. Practice attendance is a major factor in determining playing time. Therefore, players skipping or missing practices will be cause for reduced playing time during games and matches. Please make practice a priority.

Playing Time
There is no guaranteed amount of playing time at SCVA tournament events. Playing time is not “given” to players. It is earned. Coaches evaluate player’s involvement and base their decisions on performance in practices, ability to perform specific skills, knowledge of the game, positive attitude, disciplined and focused work ethic, a comprehension of what to do on offense/defense and other game type scenarios, in addition to their playing position. We do guarantee that if your daughter works hard, and is a focused team player, adequate time will be provided on the court to see competitive action. Playing time is at the sole discretion of the coach.
