USAV HP Tryouts
USAV HP will be running two tryouts next
weekend in Tempe, AZ at the Court One Facility. One will be held on
Friday, March 22, the other on Sunday, March 24, both running from
4:00pm until 8:00pm. We are in great need of additional coaches to
work the tryout. As in the past, we need coaches to run courts and
to evaluate athletes. I would love it if you could spare one or both
of these evenings to help out the Arizona Region and USA Volleyball.
In addition, if you know of other coaches who may be available,
please forward this e-mail to them and encourage them to get
involved. Coaches would need to arrive at the facility by 2:30pm,
however if you could make it there slightly later, that would still
be of help.
If you are available, please click on
the link below to sign up for the tryout by Wednesday, March 20th at
5:00P.M.

I am sure that with your help we can really make the tryout great
for the participating athletes. Thank you in advance for your help
personally or your assistance finding additional coaches.
Thanks again – I look forward to hearing from you!

Storm Represented in Festival Fiesta
2013
Congratulations to all Arizona Storm
teams that participated in the first annual Festival Fiesta hosted
in the University of Phoenix football stadium where the Cardinals
play! It was a great set up and a fun atmosphere for our girls to
compete in.
In the 16 Open division, Storm 15
Thunder beat AZ East Valley Juniors-Mizuno in the finals. The two
teams crossed paths 3 times over the weekend and 15T was victorious
in all three matches as they finished the weekend 9-0.
Storm 16 Thunder was not far behind
finishing 3rd place overall. 16 Lightning finished with a respectful
7th place in the open division overall. Way to go girls! In the 16
Club Division, our 15 Lightning team finished 13th overall but won
their Bronze division!
In the 14 and under Open division, Storm 14 Thunder tied for 5th and
13 Thunder placed 14th which was 2nd in the Bronze division. In 14
Club, 14 Lightning finished 13th overall with a 5th place finish in
the Silver division.
Another highlight came when the 12 Thunder team beat East Valley
Juniors 12-Mizuno in the finals of the 12 club division.
12 Lightning placed 11th with a 3rd
place finish in the Silver Division and our little 12 Lightning
Boltz fought hard against the older 12s finishing 25th.
Overall, there was a strong showing with AZ Storm and it was nice to
see all the teams supporting one another. This was a first time
tournament and we look forward to competing in this in the future as
well! Way to go Storm! |

Girls Scorer and Referee Training
There will be a new way to train the girls for scorekeeping and
referee assignments for the 2013 season. More info will be coming so
consider this advance notice.
For 12's - 14's the training will basically stay the same. They will
have a clinic with a training official there to teach the
disciplines of scorekeeping, libero tracking and R2 and linesman.
Clinics will be scheduled in which teams can sign up to attend. Or
as we have done in the past, we will host it at one of our practice
sites.
In the past, 15's-18's had to do the same training every year. And
every year, it was tedious because we were all so comfortable with
our referee roles as we get older. But this year, 15's - 18's have
the opportunity to complete training online through the
VolleyballRefTraining.com website. They will need to take the
training For Credit in order for it to appear on their record.
Those new to club volleyball should take the face to face training
of one of the clinics. |
