[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The region needs to know that parents have opinions regarding tryouts.  Let the region know.[/quote]

You are saying that as if the region is listening to whatever opinions the parents have. The only thing you can assume from this conversation is that one parent wants a longer season. Why would the region listen to that opinion? Why wouldn't the region listen to a parent who thinks that the season is long enough as it is now? And how would you let the region know something? Through your coach / club? You write letters? You fill out a form? Even with those options available, what makes you think the region will implement random changes suggested by parents? [/quote]

DP. Why wouldn’t USAV create a standard schedule nationally? It doesn’t make sense that any region would set itself up to be less competitive by playing a much shorter season. But maybe PP has perspective I am not understanding for why a less competitive region is more ideal.

All regions play the same tournament season, December/January through June, but some come into that season with 5 more months of practice and team cohesion. [/quote]
The July tryout system has its own set of issues. I’ve seen discussions about how it can limit mobility between clubs. There isn’t time to do the fall clinic circuit that CHRVA players looking to switch clubs can use to get exposure to other clubs than who they played for last season.  Also 4 additional months of practice would increase costs. Coach and gym time isn’t free.

I don’t know whether CHRVA has considered drastic changes to their tryout model in recent years. Generally, CHRVA seems to be a little slower to change than other regions. For example, having players referee matches at regional tournaments is something most other regions don’t do anymore - most have a paid up ref for every match. Similarly, most other regions have moved to VolleyStation and away from paper scoresheets.  [/quote]
