My best wishes to the sucess of the tournament, anyone who is not going to east coast, or adult nationals should definately go to this event. Nick is a class act. If you are going out of town, please send some kind of donation to aid in his recovery.

Hi I would like to bring a team to the event. But to pitch the idea I need a few questions answered. USAV cards needed? Entry fee? Start times?

Now for the questions about the benefit tournament for Nick. Yes this is will be a tournament. I believe Sons have a tourney in Virginia and that only the 16's and 18's are going. Is that right? The adult nationals is going on at this time also. Teams can be a mix of players from various teams. You do not have to play with your school team. Players will participate in ref duties like in club volleyball. No you do not need U.S.A.V. cards. Start times depend upon the number of teams. It will be ran in a pool play style then advancing to playoffs and finals. This will be a long day but ALL proceeds will go to Nick and his family! I will have all information up by Monday May 12. For more information please email dheneks@bellsouth.net or deanamnewman@yahoo.com. Thank you to all who are wanting to support Nick and his family at this time! God Bless! Isaiah 53:5 "...by His stripes you are healed."
