To upgrade to full membership, you will log-in using your Webpoint credentials. You will then add the club name you have committed to and upgrade to full member you will be charged $45.00.

8 CEVA LETTER OF COMMITMENT The CEVA Letter of Commitment was developed by the Junior Girls Committee and applies to all indoor junior girls clubs operating in the Columbia Empire Region/USA Volleyball. A commitment is a fully executed CEVA Letter of Commitment, accepting a club s offer to a player/guardian by the Club Director or designee. CEVA will not recognize any other agreements or contracts, oral or written, between a club and a player/guardian. Players/guardians should review all club specific financial obligations, policies and/or contracts prior to signing the CEVA Letter of Commitment. The first date a player and guardian are allowed to sign the CEVA Letter of Commitment and/or make a financial payment is the first date of tryouts for their respective age division. A player and guardian may not sign a CEVA Letter of Commitment for more than one club. Once a player and guardian have signed a CEVA Letter of Commitment for a club, they are considered a member of that club until the completion of the club season (see below). SANCTIONS: A violation of this policy by either the player/parent or club personnel/club designee may result in up to a full season suspension. ***Once an athlete knows what her options are, she is encouraged to make her decision as quickly as possible. This is a courtesy to other athletes who are waiting for offers and clubs that are attempting to solidify their team rosters***
