Welcome to the 2008 Club Volleyball season. The Rogue Valley Volleyball Club (RVVC) is pleased to offer a variety of training options for your daughter. This overview provides a description of our programs that are designed for 4th through 12th grade players. From the beginner to the player looking to play in college, we will provide a quality experience for your athlete.

RVVC does not hold try-outs as we will attempt to place all players on age and ability-appropriate teams. This placement will take place in January when we begin our practice sessions.

To register: We may be able to enroll a few more players.

Varsity and Junior Varsity players, under the guidance of the North Medford Volleyball coaching staff, are the coaches for these teams.
     Participants may sign up by team (6 to 10 players), or sign up as an individual and be placed on a team. Spring League is tailored to all levels of play, from beginning to advanced intermediate. Training will be adjusted for each team based on their ability level.
     Spring League is five weeks long, starting April 21st and concluding on May 22nd. The participation fee for the Spring League is $50per player or $300 per team (up to 10 players per team) for the five week season.

Costs
Specific costs of these programs are listed in the program description. A non-refundable deposit is required to hold your place in the club. The balance that is due is required the first week of practice. Because the club must contract with the coaches for the season, all fees are non-refundable.

Fundraising
Upon joining RVVC, each player has the option to participate in the available fundraising options. These will include: sponsor letters, Lithia raffle ticket sales and Volleyball Festival raffle ticket sales. For all three options, any funds raised by the player are credited directly to that player’s account. Additional details for each option will be available in early January.
