2. What types of tournaments do you attend and how often?

We average two tournaments per month from January until May. 

About half of our tournaments are multi-day events.  

Most years our multi-day tournaments are held in Minneapolis, MN, Chicago, IL, Indianapolis, IN, Milwaukee and Wisconsin Dells, WI.

All age groups compete at two national qualifiers.

Our single day events are usually held in the Badger Region (Wisconsin), Great Lakes Region (Northern Illinois), and the Iowa Region (Eastern Iowa).  

Tournament information is posted on each team's Roster page.

3. How much does club cost?          4. What does the club fee cover?

The club fee for teams are 14's-18's = $1575. 

These fees cover the cost of uniforms, tournament entry fees (except season ending tournaments), equipment, coaches expenses (except season ending tournaments), gym rental, etc.. 

The 14-18 club fee covers the cost of two national qualifiers.  To be clear....there is NO additional club fees for National Qualifiers. 

The club fees do not cover the players cost of travel such as hotels, meals, gas, etc..

 

Families may pay the club fee as a lump sum, but at a minimum must pay according to the monthly payment schedule listed below.

Payments are spread over the season as a convenience to our families.  We require a start-up fee when the player commits after tryouts and then the remainder of payments are spread over the season in monthly payments.  Monthly payments are a convenience for our players.  Players must keep their payments up-to-date in order to continue to practice and compete at tournaments.

Season ending tournaments are handled on a team by team basis and this may include National Championship tournaments.  Each attending player will be charged an additional fee for these tournaments.

 

Basic Payment Schedule and Due Dates

6. When do your tournaments start and when does your season end?

Our tournament season starts in January and ends in May for most of or teams.  Our 14's through 18's will compete to qualify for nationals and if successful will play at nationals in late June.  If they do not qualify they will have the option of another season ending tournament in May or June.

7. My daughter wants to play other sports.  How do you handle potential conflicts?

We understand that many of our players are part of their high school athletics programs and other activities such as dance, music, etc..  We expect that academics will take precedence in whatever time conflict presents itself.  We do however, expect a serious commitment to Wisconsin Select practices and tournaments.  Wisconsin Select exists to help our players improve their level of play and provide the opportunity to compete against some of the best competition within USA Volleyball.  To do that we need to have all of our players together working as a team.  We inform our players early about the tournaments we expect to enter and we expect feedback from them on possible conflicts.  We also expect to be informed by our players well in advance when they will be late or miss a practice.  Each team will define what a player can expect when they miss practices with regards to  tournament play, especially if they miss without prior notice to their coach.

8. How many players do you have on a team and how many teams do you have per age group?

Wisconsin Select usually carries ten players per team and we have one team per age group.  Ten players allows us to give all of our players a good amount of playing time and still gives us some buffer in case a player, for whatever reason, is unable to attend a tournament.

9. Do you conduct fundraising?

Wisconsin Select does not typically take the lead in conducting fundraising.  If our parents are interested in fundraising we will create a parents' committee with representatives from each team to organize and execute those activities.

10. What if my daughter can't make one of the tryout dates?

If your daughter cannot attend one of our tryout sessions let us know.  On the first day of tryouts part of the session deals with physical testing.  If you daughter can come at another age groups time to do the physical testing that would be okay.  If she cannot attend any session on the first day then she should try to come about 1/2 hour earlier on the second day to do the physical testing.  In either case, make sure you let us know about the situation so that we can expect her at a different time.  You can send us an email at wisconsinselectvolleyball@gmail.com to let us know of the conflict and how you plan to address it.
