Hotels and Flights for Travel Tournaments

Travel Policy

Hotels
Many have asked what the options are for travel tournaments. Here is our stance.

Power will secure a room block through the tournament housing agency to ensure we are meeting the requirements needed to enter the tournament. Each family attending the tournament is highly encouraged to book a room within the club block. If your family cannot meet these requirements please reach out to the directors as soon as possible.

As part of our player development we strongly believe and highly encourage all players stay as a team when they are at a travel tournament. You will find the teams that are the most successful and that compete at the National level have team chemistry and have developed a team concept. This is also becoming an important characteristic coaches at the next level are looking for in recruiting players. We want to make sure our athletes are fully prepared in all aspects of the game. We do understand that this may cause an additional cost for our families who travel to tournaments but it is one that has value in the development of their daughter.

Please stay in constant communication with your coaches and club directors regarding your families plans on hotels.

All players must secure transportation to all tournament locations. Players must arrive to the hotel by the specified time and attend all team meetings. Players must also remember to bring meal money when attending tournaments.


Flights
We ask that all athletes arrive the day before competition, and depart no earlier than 5:30 PM on the last day of the tournament.
Club Dues
Payments are due on the 1st and late after the 15th. If wanting to pay by CC, you can access your invoice by logging into your account here and selecting the payment you wish to make. Reminder there is a 3% service fee for cc payments.

If you are paying by check or cash please bring payments to our payment dropbox during the house of 6-10 Tuesday/Thursday

As a friendly reminder, non payment could result in your daughter not be allowed to participate in activities. Please reach out with questions.

Energy Drinks Are Not the Answer

Sponsorship Opportunities
Thank you for your tireless support of your child at Power Volleyball Club. As we partner with you here at Power Volleyball club for the upcoming season, I want you to know that your commitment does not go unnoticed.

As you know, at Power we place the needs of the players and coaches first and that club fees pay for your daughter's necessities for a successful season. To pay for things that are not covered by club dues: equipment, scholarships, special events like our team get together and local charitable giving we rely on fundraising with a silent auction and raffle at the annual banquet and your donations. This year we are expanding our fundraising to include support of local businesses. 


Can we count on you to help out? It's simple, if you work for business or know a business that could sponsor the club for the upcoming year, let us know!
