Tournaments: Regional Team members are required to make their travel tournament commitments by the end of May. If plans change, parents must notify SandYard Volleyball at a minimum of 6 weeks before the tournament. Backing out of a tournament will affect pairings for ALL tournament participants - failing to notify us in advance will result in a loss of your tournament entry fee. Coaches will accompany the team to all tournaments. Tournament coaching fees are accounted for in your dues.
Recruiting: Recruiting assistance is not included for Regional Team members but can be purchased as an added package. Additionally, partners are not guaranteed for collegiate showcase events, should a Regional Team member choose to attend.
Partners: For tournaments, Regional Team partners will be chosen by SandYard Volleyball coaching staff. There will be circumstances where we allow Regional Team members to play tournaments with players outside of our club if we feel it is best for the individual growth of that player.
