Team Commitment Levels
"National" teams require the most commitment. These teams are designed for athletes who want to play volleyball at the highest level. Our top National teams will compete in the top two divisions in tournaments where the competition is most challenging. These teams will play in tournaments that require out-of-state travel, some of which may require flights.
"Elite" teams have a lower level of commitment compared to National teams. These teams are great for athletes looking to play competitively. This division is to showcase regionally strong teams that may travel out of state.
"Regional" teams require the least commitment. They are a great fit for athletes who are newer to the sport or prefer less travel.
For the 2025-2026 USAV season, the age divisions are determined by the athlete's birthdate, with the key date being July 1st. Generally, a player's age division corresponds to their age on July 1st of the competition year. For example, a player born on or after July 1, 2007, would be eligible for the 18 & Under division,
