USAV MEMBERSHIP INFO

Important information for creating new accounts in Sportsengine (applicable primarily to those who have never had a membership before) USAV Memberships must be obtained at the start of the season:

● Members under 18 will have an account underneath their parent/guardian’s account.

● The parent/guardian will create an account first, prior to entering information for their player. This does not require the parent/guardian to obtain a membership or pay anything.

● When a parent/guardian logs into their account, they’ll be able to access their player’s profile, purchase a membership, and update information.

There will be a series of questions to determine what type of membership will need to be purchased for the member. When you get to the check out page, you will see “two transactions” that equal the total membership price. One transaction represents the fees going to the Florida Region and the other represents the fees going to USAV. You will still be charged the same amount- you are just going to see an itemized breakdown. You may also see two separate charges (totaling the amount of your membership) on a credit card statement.

After a membership is purchased, you may receive an email outlining the additional steps outlining the additional steps necessary to become eligible to participate. Your account will also show these requirements. If a family has multiple members, they can have their membership information in the same master account, using one set of login credentials called a “family account.” Fort Lauderdale United VB will send a link directly to those athletes who will need a USAV membership for the season, therefore; it will connect you automatically to our organization.

Once an athlete has participated in a regional or national qualifying/bid event, athlete transfers are bound by the transfer/release rules of the Girls’ Junior National Qualifier manuals. With having a USAV membership, athletes will need to complete JR. Officiating courses to play in USAV tournaments. These courses and training modules are a member benefit, and are only available to USAV registered members. The learning Academy platform will provide access to the online training materials and track the completed certifications for each member. All Junior athletes will automatically be enrolled in the complete set of officiating team courses in their USAV Academy through SportsEngine. The courses required to complete are:

● Junior R2 Training

● Junior Line Judge Training

● Junior Scorer Training

● Junior Asst. Scorer/ Libero Tracker Training
