[quote=Anonymous]Help me, DCUM vb families! Please be kind. This tryout was on a whim and the offer has an expensive price tag.

Background - we’ve been a soccer club family. One DD is ECNL so we are used to the commitment, costs and travel, and know who the good clubs and teams are and generally what the future looks like.

One daughter (u14) landed a spot on a local vb club’s national team (not DC). Looking at the tournament schedule, it looks like they have 9 tournaments, up and down the east coast and Puerto Rico.

My question-

are there any national rankings for clubs? I have no clue about the quality of the club, director, coaches, etc.

What are the best tournaments? Hoping to gauge how good we might be based on tournaments we are accepted into.

Are there leagues or regions? We are used to weekly play in soccer leagues with advancement to playoffs, but with all VB tournaments it seems more difficult to gauge how strong this club is.

Are college commitments typically posted?

And, finally, I always envisioned volleyball as a sport of 6’+ tall women. Is  there really any chance for high level competition for a girl who is 5’10”?

Thanks and I apologize for my completely basic questions. We weren’t expecting a spot on this team and now need to make a decision. [/quote]
