Age Definition

Once a player participates (including but not limited to practicing, training, attending workouts and/or competing) in a club or varsity program for any university, college, community college, or junior college, he/she is ineligible to take part in any regional and national programming, which includes but is not limited to Junior National Championship qualifying and championship events.

AGE WAIVERS

Age Waivers allow athletes to play a Division below their birthday cutoff (July 1). Age Waivers are for In-Region play only. Athletes are NOT allowed to play in a lower Age Division at USA Volleyball sanctioned national events.

CLUB DIRECTORS
With the new SportsEngine system, there is no need to fill out an age waiver request. When you add an age waivered athlete to a roster, it will automatically be flagged and the Region Office will go in and accept.
