Texas Pistols Volleyball Club

PARENT INFORMATION SHEET

Welcome to the Texas Pistols Volleyball Club! Last year was a great year for us. Our 12 Black team won Lonestar and qualified for Nationals in the American Division where we placed 5th. Our 11 Black team came in second at Lonestar and placed 9th at Nationals! This season we are sponsored by Nike and will be Head to Toe Nike. We are still affiliated with Wise Regional for all sports therapy and training. We are looking to expand and improve on our winning tradition!

COACHING PHILOSOPHY:

Our success is because of a very simple philosophy - DISCIPLINE. You don’t get what you want, you get what you earn. Hard work, setting achievable goals, and not being afraid to give 150% is the key to a fun and winning season. Our coaches believe that a fun, disciplined, motivating environment will allow a child to mature and strive to be great. We are not just building volleyball players. We are building strong, confident young women.

Practices:

Practices will be held at the Decatur MultiPurpose Building, unless otherwise specified. Practices will be twice/week, 2 hours each week. Practice is Mandatory. This is not rec ball. If you cannot make a practice, you are to call your coach and advise. Your team depends on you at practices and at games.

FUNDRAISERS:

We will have THREE fundraisers this season! The first one will be at the beginning of practices. We highly encourage you to have your child actively participate in these. This allows them to feel vested and responsible for their dues. Shelly Vinzant will be in charge of these and all questions should be directed to her. Her contact info is at the bottom of this packet.

Club Dues:

Dues are listed below in the table. There is a LATE PAYMENT FEE of $25/week. Should a player become injured or discontinue the season for any reason, there will be NO REFUNDS, however the remaining payments need not be paid. ALL MONIES ARE NONREFUNDABLE.

TRYOUTS

ALL GIRLS WILL NEED TO BECOME USA VOLLEYBALL MEMBERS BEFORE THE FIRST TRYOUT!!!!

The North Texas Region has created a window for players to tryout for as many clubs as they wish within that window. The window starts on a Saturday morning and runs through Sunday at noon. During that window, a club can offer a player and that player may accept that offer. Also, a club CAN NOT take an offer off the table. However, the Region will not acknowledge an offer until signing date, Sunday at noon.
