Costs: We are committed to capping club costs for the 2017 season at $700 per player. This
will cover 8 tournament dates (including Regionals), practice time, registration, coaches' fees and miscellaneous
expenses. This cost
DOES NOT INCLUDE the cost of new uniforms or balls, together totaling approximately
$100. Uniforms are estimated to be no more than $75. Taken together, total out of pockets costs are estimated
to be about $875. Parents may submit one lump sum payment, or pay according to the information on the
2018 Fees page.
Length of Season: Most teams in the club will play 8 tournaments.
This includes 7 regular tournaments, and the regional tournament held at the end of the season in Columbus.
Practices:
Most teams will begin practicing in early January. Practices will be held in Kidron. Generally, practices will
be held on Sunday afternoons and one other night during the week. When tournaments are held on Saturdays, it will be
up to the coaches as to whether or not there will be a Sunday practice. When there are Sunday tournaments, obviously,
there will be only one practice that week.
Tournaments: While efforts will
be made to schedule as many Saturday tournaments as possible, at least half (and possibly more) will be played on Sundays.
Most teams will begin tournament play in early February and continue through late April or early May, usually at the rate
of two per month. We will try to schedule as many tournaments as possible within an hour or two of Kidron.
Player Selection Process: Players will be selected
following one two-hour training session. Players selected will be posted on the Kidron Volleyball Club website (Roster
page) within three days. A number of alternates will also be chosen. Chosen players have ten days to either
accept or decline. Additionally, a player must submit the initial installment of $250 to complete the acceptance
process. After ten days, any positions declined or not accepted will be offered to alternates.
