U15 General Information

Our Elevation Volleyball Club had an outstanding year in the U14 age group this past season.  The National team qualified for Nationals in Reno the Regional team finished 3rd out of 224 teams in our region!  Thank you to all the players and families who helped us achieve these goals despite the number of injuries that we encountered.  We definitely Elevated some doctor bills in this age group!  As we look toward next year it's important to realize that things change at 15's.  When the girls get to high school they may get moved to other positions or even get cut which is an obvious issue.  Considerations like these and the realization that a few of our regional players may need to be moved to the National team lead us to the need for evaluations after high school ends.  We also have outside players asking about our club and they will be invited to tryout and win spots on our teams.  As you know, our club will not be making any official invitations in July.  I personally felt that this was not possible as a club because we were not prepared to make all of those decisions.  Things happened so fast and we have been so busy this summer that competent invitations just were not in the cards.   We are planning on having a majority of you being back next year and some invitations would have been obvious.  We hope to see everyone at tryouts in November to decide the teams.  We have some outstanding players with us and we hope to add a few more through the tryout process.
 
Question: Why not add a 3rd team? 
Answer: We did!
 
General Recruiting Rules:
Clubs can not cold call or "recruit" players to play for them.  I know a few other clubs are holding open gyms right now with the intent of finding new players but any players "found" can not sign a contract and are not bound to any team until after the November tryout period when they officially pick a team.  Elevation will not be holding open gyms in July and we will not be seeking out new players.  We will respond to inquiries about our teams made through our website or by phone about any open positions or our tryouts as usual.  Ohio Valley Region Player Bill of Rights
