Adult Tournament Host

2023-2024 Adult Sixes

The Chesapeake Region Volleyball Association (CHRVA) Adult Program is committed to providing the safest possible environment in our efforts to offer volleyball opportunities during the 2023-2024 season. 

We are aware of the challenges and concerns that many have, to include purchasing a FULL membership, therefore, we would like to offer the following:

1. Team Rep must have a current CHRVA FULL adult membership (for insurance purposes).

2. Team Rep must create the team in the CHRVA membership system (SportsEngine).

3. A team can consist of both FULL and ONE-DAY memberships (No limitation on the number of ONE-DAY memberships).

4. This offer was for the 2022-2023 season ONLY. However, we are reviewing this for the 2023-2024 season and will provide an update in November 2023.

5. Once you have had an opportunity to play and see the safety measures in place, you can upgrade your membership. 

6. Planning to participate in Regionals and/or Nationals? If your team is planning to play in Regionals and/or Nationals, ALL players must have a full CHRVA membership. 

7. Going to Nationals? We have a new formula.

Officiating

Referee

Men’s and Women’s Teams are NOT required to have certified referees and scorekeepers however; you are required to know the rules. Please be sure to review the scoring and referee training modules for rule changes.

Scorekeeping

We’ll use the official score sheet and it must be completed entirely, which is why it is important that players completing the score sheets must review the clinic to ensure they have an understanding of how to properly complete it. We will NOT use the scoring system used last season.

For additional information check out the referee and scorer certification instruction links below:

Referee and Scorekeeping Information

Referees and scorers will not be required to be certified HOWEVER; it is important that all members familiarize themselves with the rules. Please review clinics when they are available. 

Based on member feedback and in order to make certain we get off to a great season, we will need to make the following changes:

Matching uniforms are optional, BUT numbers are required. You can tape it on or write it on with a marker, having a number will make scoring easier.

Libero’s MUST wear a jersey that is immediately recognized as being distinct from the other members of the team. Since the Libero can be named floor captain, he or she must also wear a number.

The R1, R2, and score flipper will continue to be responsible for catching illegal use of Libero (i.e. rotating to the front row, serving illegally).

The Tournament Director will appoint two other individuals (one from each court) to serve on the protest committee in order to resolve issues using the Handbook and DCR. Hosts will be required to provide either hard copies or a laptop or tablet. Researching rules on phones will not be allowed.

All teams will be agreeing to this when signing the team registration form. This signature also holds your team to act with courtesy and consideration toward all work teams and each other.
