Elite teams are considered by athletes who are looking to train and compete at the highest level in club, and aspire to play in college.
· Elite teams are travel teams that hold tryouts in October for the “14 and youngers” and in November for the high school players.
· Elite teams typically practice from 8 to 10 times per month.
· Elite teams compete in all of the regional events, as well as the SCVA Junior Olympic qualifier.
· Elite teams may have a paid assistant coach during the regional season (additional JO qualifiers, and season ending tournaments are not included).
· All players accepting spots on elite teams will also compete in either the AAUs, Festival or the Junior Olympic Championships taking place at the end of the season.
· Elite teams may compete in additional (out of region) Junior Olympic qualifiers. The additional cost of these out of region qualifiers are not estimated here.
· Last year Coast had 5 teams qualify for the Junior Olympics.
· An SCVA schedule can be found at SCVAvolleyball.org by clicking on Juniors, then Girls and then clicking on Schedule.
· The Elite Team season begins in November for the 14 under teams and December for the 15s-18s, with all teams ending around the first week of July (the exact date will vary according to age group and will be established by USA Volleyball in March).
