- Some new teams have been added to the team code list, updated here: http://badgervolleyball.org/junior-team-codes.php. A reminder that everyone should show up to tournaments with a roster that has a pretty green check mark on it for team fee paid, not an ugly red x. The red X means you won't be playing.
- A reminder to report when you taught your team the ref/scorekeeping procedures: http://badgervolleyball.org/forms-referee-scorekeeper-certification-verification.php. So far I have 57 clubs reporting. We have WAY more than that. I'm hoping some of you just haven't filled out the form yet. Despite the feedback I'm getting, this is NOT a new requirement, you've always either had to attend a ref/sk clinic and then go back and teach your club, or bring in a clinician. Feb.6 we will be auditing and publicizing this list - that's five weekends into the season and everyone should have it done by this point. We've already heard reports of blank scoresheets, coaching R1s not knowing the rules, etc. Please continue to review with your clubs and use http://www.volleyballreftraining.com/ as a resource. Again, it also has a video of how the pre-match handshake should look - please review this with your team.. http://www.volleyballreftraining.com/indoor_modules.php
-We've gotten some good photos on Facebook and some good things on the blog. Even if you just want to give a shout-out to good refereeing like Dante from Ozaukee Wave did last weekend - this blog is by Badger Region about Badger Region and it's gotten more than 400 page views since it was started a week ago. Help publicize your clubs!! http://brvolleyblog.blogspot.com/
- There's a final Impact date next Tuesday (the 17th) in Madison.
- If you're applying for the boy's grant funding, please do so, so we can get those payments out. If you don't know what I'm talking about, click here: http://badgerregionvolleyballclubdirectors.blogspot.com/2011/11/free-money-for-boys.html They're first come, first served.
Ok, I'm done. Travel safe this weekend and I'll see some of you in the Dells for Badger Power League!

USAV Club Director Resource pages
Just a quick forward from USAV about some updates they've done to the Club Directors Resource Grassroots page and some of the new things available:
http://usavolleyball.org/grassroots/club-directors-sharing
If you do anything as a club director that you may find would benefit anyone (from how you run tryouts, extra training sessions for your coaches, team bonding experiences, etc.), please either let me know or contact John Kessel at USAV.

The Grassroots web pages have been updated recently. On the Club Directors pages we have added a budget and cash flow example for any of your clubs who may have questions on how to get started or how to customize what they are now using.
The second update to that same Club Directors page, is the Business Resource guidelines. This is a combination of Non Profit and Small Business connections that we thought you might find useful for your region and to share with your clubs.
Remember we are always here to help and to answer any questions that you might have. It takes us all to work together to grow our sport. Tell us how we can help you!

Team Codes / Team Fees / VolleyBlog
Hi all-
First off - good luck and have fun to those competing this weekend!
The team codes for eligible teams (i.e. those who have paid their team fees) can be found here: http://badgervolleyball.org/junior-team-codes.php This will be updated as a few remaining clubs pay their team fees. The date will be indicated as to when it was last updated, so please check your copy against the date here when using this.
The team fee issue I emailed you about at the beginning of the week was resolved mid-week. All is well and no one should show up at a tournament with a big red X on their rosters. You will not be allowed to play.
I would like to start something for the website called the Badger Region VolleyBlog, to show life in and around Badger Region. I would like to hear from junior, collegiate and adult players, coaches, parents, siblings, officials, tournament directors - anyone really - about their experiences. If someone wants to do a weekly entry about their practices and then the weekend tournament and travel - fantastic. If someone wants to write up an entry about a cool team bonding experience - perfect. If an official wants to comment on a great job officiating by a team - wonderful. There really is no structure to this, just for people who like to write or like to see what is going on around the Region. Please pass this around to your coaches and teams - or it's a perfect "team parent" activity! They can email me with anything they'd like to submit - photos too. If they don't want to post their name, we can also work around that - as long as I know it's a legit person!
And as you or your coaches/players post photos on Facebook, please tag Badger Region Volleyball (the fan page) so we can get more up there!
