History |
| |
The Springfield Junior
Volleyball Club was started in 1984 by Linda Dollar and the
SMSU Staff as a means for area athletes to participate in an
advanced program without having to travel to Kansas City or
St. Louis. |
| |
 |
| |
Purpose |
| |
The purpose of the
club is to expand individual and team volleyball skills by providing
off-season coaching and training experiences to members. These
member athletes from rival schools come together into a team
situation. They compete against other advanced teams from around
Missouri and neighboring states. Involvement in this program
improves one's ability to play school volleyball as well as
increasing one's chances for college volleyball scholarships.

Philosophy Our program
is basically developmental with everyone getting the opportunity
to improve through practice. Tournament participation will vary
depending upon which team one is on. Success is determined largely
by the effort of each player. As the season progresses, our
ultimate goal is to qualify a team for the national tournament.
Another goal may be to have some teams go to a Festival type
tournament after the season is over. |

Cost |
| |
The fee for the program
is dependent upon coaches and tournaments selected. We will
do various fundraisers as desired. The fee provides players
uniforms consisting of two tees and a pair of shorts. It covers
the cost of coaches' expenses, practice and tourney stipends,
tournament entries, all USAV costs and sanction fees involved
with the club, administrative costs such as office supplies
and telephone, and athletic equipment, some replacement volleyballs,
bags, carts, and various other athletic supplies. |

Media Guide |
| |
We will have a Media
Guide printed with pictures and information about all of our
coaches, players on each team, ads from local businesses supporting
the girls, tournament results from the previous year, letters
from coaches, and pictures from last season. |

Practice and Tournaments
|
| |
Athletes are expected
to attend practice and tournaments except for school conflicts.
Conflicts with school teams should be minimal, but when a conflict
occurs, the interscholastic team comes first. |
