Club Cooney: My Site News
Club Cooney ...
We are a competitive volleyball club for female youth. Club ball is an opportunity for your daughter to grow as a volleyball player. Fundamentals to advanced skills and strategies are taught along with teamwork, good sportsmanship, and responsibility.
Club Commitment
Club Cooney understands that players are involved in other school sports, activities, and church functions. This should be given priority. At the same time, understand that Club Cooney requires commitment as well.
The Season
Club season runs from December – April with weekend tournaments held January – April.
Fees
$575 plus the cost of uniform jersey (approx. $35). Fee covers tournament entry costs, coach fees, equipment, gym rental, Badger Region membership, and administrative costs. This does not include if a team chooses to compete in Nationals or additional tournaments. Payment is to be made in full by the first parent/kick-off meeting on November 24th. Payment not made by this date forfeits players spot on the team. The developmental team (if enough participants) for 11 & under has a reduced fee and participates in fewer tournaments.
Practices
Approx. 2 times a week starting in December. Actual practice days and times is determined at Kick-off meeting.
Tournaments
Each team selects approximately two tournaments per month to compete in. Competitions are held on Saturdays or Sundays (2 day tournaments are a possibility). It is recommended that other activities not be scheduled for tournament days. Play starts early (7:30 am warm-ups). The length of the tournament day is dependent on how the team plays. It can end as early as 3 pm or go as late as 6 pm.
Club Cooney encourages any female youth interested in club ball to attend tryouts. Club selection and play is based on performance, potential, and attitude.
