The payments are due on every 1st or 5th of the month as specified on your Financial Agreement and no later than the 10th of every month, after this date a late fee will be added to your balance. No exceptions to this rule.

ALL PAYMENTS ARE NON REFUNDABLE. NO EXCEPTIONS

It is the responsibility of the player/parents to check the emails, messages and the social media page to keep informed about any changes on the schedule.

We use the OCPS Facilities for our practices so we must follow the OCPS calendar and rules. So  in the event of the school being closed during school vacations and/or holidays, or the gym not being available, or for any other reason that prevents us from using the facilities for practices, the practices or activity will need to be canceled.

In the event of practice cancellations, no refund, discount, makeup practices, rain check or other will be provided.

We understand that the parents are eager to provide instructions and teach new techniques to the team and to the players during the games and practices. Unfortunately, most of the parents have no idea what they are talking about and most of the time the “little tips” are extreme nonsense. SO REFRAIN FROM PROVIDING TIPS OR INSTRUCTIONS TO PLAYERS, if this happens and becomes an issue we may need to take measures to disallow disruptive parents from attending matches, all to provide a better environment that allow Hunters Creek Volleyball Academy’s players and coaches, to perform at their best.

We are a Volleyball Club with a focus on the practices of Volleyball, WE ARE NOT A DAYCARE, so it is your responsibility to drop off and pick up the player at the venues ON TIME, either for the practices or for the games, the coaches/directors/staff WILL NOT STAY AT THE VENUES WAITING FOR ANY PARENT/GUARDIAN and you daughter/son/player may stay alone until your arrival.

All the parents must be reachable and at no more than 1 hour distance from the venues where we are having either the games or the practices. If a parent cannot assist the player as described above, the player won’t be allowed to participate in a practice or a game. IF ANY SITUATION ARISE AND PARENT/GUARDIAN IS NOT REACHABLE WE WILL CALL 911 AT PARENTS/GUARDIAN EXPENSES AND RESPONSIBILITY.

The Hunters Creek Volleyball Academy is an organization registered under the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU). 

We are not sponsored by or affiliated with any School District.

This organization’s mission is to provide an affordable and competitive club environment that builds a strong foundation of fundamental skills, techniques and game strategies in our athletes while building their love for sport and in particular for the game of volleyball.

The Hunters Creek Volleyball Academy currently welcomes youth athletes ages 8 -17

Our Coaching Staff is dedicated, experienced and comprises volunteers who have been associated with the game of volleyball for many years. They are required to provide instruction that is appropriate based on our athletes age and ability.

TryOuts/Team Placement

Based on our need we may promote a Try Out/Placement practice. This tryout does not configure any guarantee of placement on a specific team but we will offer to all the players the opportunity to be part of our academy, either on a team or just on an Academy Practices.

Age Divisions:

We will follow the age division bracket post on USAV or AAU webpage in accordance to the player date of birth.

We WILL NOT allow players to play out on a lower age division unless we have an approval from AAU/USAV or from the Tournament Organizer.

Once a player participates (including but not limited to practicing, training, attending workouts and/or competing) in a club or varsity program for any university, college, community college, or junior college, he/she is ineligible to take part in any regional and national programming, which includes but is not limited to AAU national, USAV qualifying and championship events. 18 and Under Division:

Payments

The club and player/parents are bound by the details and payments listed on the Finance Agreement and may not be released from the agreement and payment commitment until the end of the season.

Checks can be made payable to Hunters Creek Volleyball Academy. A US$35 fee will be charged for returned checks

The payment can be made via Check, Cash Payment App (Zelle etc) or Credit Card.

The parent/Player is responsible to keep all the receipts for payments for future reference. If a payment is disputed and Parent/Player cannot provide a valid receipt the amount will remain due until paid.

Team Selection:

Our Club would like to have every player make a team but that is not always feasible, for that reason we hold tryouts so we can select the athletes

The selection/placement is based on age, skills, potential, positive attitude, coach-ability and the availability of coaching staff at each team’s coach discretion for placement on the competitive teams.

The offer to be on a team must be accepted or declined by the parent/legal guardian immediately after tryout and a Non Refundable commitment fee of US250 must be paid to hold the spot, that fees will be used as part of the payment of the athlete season

The Club teams are made up of 8 to 12 athletes

Our Club may move an athlete from one team to another or offer an athlete an opportunity to play with another team in our club for certain tournaments. Our reasoning for moving an athlete can be but not limited to: a loss of another athlete due to injury, position on a team, skill level, or missing athletes for tournaments.

If at any time during the season for any reason our Club cannot offer a team placement for a player the parents will be waived from all future payments for the Season but NO REFUNDS will be issued for the previous payments. If the athlete/player wants to stay practicing at the Academy Practices, the price for the academy will be charged normally as all the others.

Practice:

Practices will begin soon after our club teams are selected.

Our players are expected to be at every practice scheduled unless they contact their Coach in advance or are already excused.

Our Coaches may refuse to play an athlete in a tournament if that athlete has been absent from the prior practice without a legitimate excuse.

All players need to notify their Coach as soon as possible about any conflicts in schedule.

*** Communication with your coach is key. ***

Communication

Every parent and player MUST have a WHATSAPP App installed on your smartphone. We create groups on WHATSAPP that we use to communicate and post importante information.

Tournaments & Travel

A list of all the tournaments (the list is a tentative) included on your team package will be provided in written or via Group chat or other media;

IF A TOURNAMENT IS NOT LISTED, MEANS THAT IT IS NOT PART OF YOUR PROGRAM.

Tournaments are typically held on a Saturday & Sunday but sometimes also on weekdays.

Athletes must be prepared with all for the appropriate gear including but not limited to BOTH SETS OF JERSEYS, knee pads, shoes, short, socks to leave very early in the morning and be out very late those nights if we are in the playoffs

On an out of town multi-day tournament, you may need to stay the night before the tournament because of the distance needed to travel. Travel expenses are the responsibility of each player’s family to include but not limited to hotel, transportation, and food.

If a team decides to participate in a tournament that is not listed on the original proposal, each team member will split the entry fee plus an additional US$50 per person to cover Coaches travel expenses, due prior to the deadline to register the team on the tournament/event.

Players can elect to not participate in additional events if they are unable to make it. Their portion of the additional fee will be split among those participating on the team.

Playing Time:

Our Coaching Staff will make every effort to offer FAIR playing time amongst our athletes wherever possible, but there is NO GUARANTEE of equal playing time.

There are limited positions on each team and players each have their own skill set.

Our Coaches will make the final decisions on the starting line-up, positions, and playing time in the best interest of their team.

During tournaments our Coaches will make a conscious effort to play every athlete who has attended practices, but it is at Coaches discretion to play those athletes that may advance our teams further.

Injuries or Prolonged Illness:

USA and AAU rules state that our Club requests a medical document from any and all players who are injured or sick, for a period of time of more than one week or 2 practices, before we can allow them to return to practice or to play in tournaments. 

Players should expect that extended absence from practices and tournaments will limit playing time upon initial return to play.
