Oxford Heat: Welcome

volleyball
OXFORD HEAT is proud to announce we are in our ninth year of promoting the volleyball skill development of female amateur athletes ages 12 - 18.  Two years ago our program joined efforts with the Oxford Volleyball Program to accomplish a common goal;  improve upon the skills, knowledge, and talent of seasoned and novice athletes in the Oxford and surrounding areas while promoting the sport of volleyball.

We are excited that we will be offering an opportunity for our athletes to participate in an acceleration training program.  This program will assist our athletes in achieving individual and team athletic performance goals by creating a unique workout program to improve upon areas of speed, power and agility.  More details will be discussed at our Meet and Greet night.

Tryouts will be open to Oxford and all surrounding area girls ages 12 through 18.  Age determination is based on the athlete's age as of September 1, 2008.  Tryout check-in will begin 30 minutes prior to your session.  Please help get the word out.  

To pre-register $50 must accompany your Volleyball Agreement and be received by January 12, 2009; $75 will be charged for walk-ins at tryouts.  The required registration forms are available and can be downloaded by clicking on "Handouts".

Registration requirements:  Volleyball Agreement, a copy of your child's birth certificate, uniform order form, and medical authorization form.  Checks for your Club and uniform fees should be made out to Oxford Heat.  Please complete the required forms to turn in at the tryout check-in; these forms must be completed in their entirety to be considered for a team. 

Team practices will begin in February or March depending upon the individual team schedule; 12U-14U teams may have athletes currently in their middle school seasonl.  Practices will be held twice a week, no practice over spring break!  Teams will compete in 10 tournaments; including the MJVBA State Championship Tournament and select one day AAU tournaments.

Your Club fee ($550 - $620) will cover:  facility fees, coach's fees, t-shirt, MJVBA registration, and tournament fees.  Fundraising opportunities will be established upon final team selection.  A monthly installment payment plan will be discussed at the parent meeting.
Additional expenses, not covered by your Club fee, will include: your uniform, travel, accommodations for your travel and food.

A multi-player discount of 10% per additional athlete will occur when more than one player from the same family household registers to play.  The discount will apply to that of an equal or lesser value.  For example - a family with two participating players will pay $620 for the first player and $558 for the second player, etc.  Two Regional athletes would be discounted as such, $1050 for the first athlete, $945 for the second registered athlete.  If you have a State team athlete and a Regional team athlete the discount would be as follows $1050 for the first athlete and $558 for the second athlete.

No parents will be permitted at tryouts as this has proven to be a distraction for athletes and coaches in the past.

Mark your calendars!
