Last year we doubled in size and we look forward to another exciting summer in the sand! The 2012 season will begin in May and continue through July. We operate very similar to an indoor volleyball club with a one-time registration fee, monthly membership dues and two scheduled practices per week. The season is broken up into three 4-week sessions. We also provide valuable coaching at our club tournaments for those players who choose to compete. Participation in tournaments is not mandatory, but highly encouraged. Teams are responsible for signing themselves up for the competitions. Each club member will receive a practice t-shirt and a uniform top that must be worn during competition.
Every member must pay a one-time registration fee to join the club. This payment will go towards uniforms, equipment and administration and will secure your place in the club. The registration fee is non-refundable. Once you pay your registration fee, you must then choose and pay for your actual membership. The monthly cost of your membership is based on the length of commitment to the club program. There is no carry-over, partial or pro-rated sessions. Lots of players have to miss a practice here or there, just as they do with indoor. What you are paying for is the monthly membership and that includes all the scheduled training in that time period only. Your membership includes two - 2hr practices per week as well as coaching at the club tournaments that you choose to compete in. Each player will also receive a club t-shirt and uniform top that must be worn at all tournaments. One-time Registration Fee: Early Bird Price (before April 30th) = $100 Late Registration (after April 30th) = $125 Membership Fees: Gold Membership - Full 12 weeks = $750.00 Silver Membership - 8 weeks = $600.00 Bronze Membership - 4 weeks = $325.00 Club BeachDig Minnesota 2012 Tournament Schedule Tournament registration fees are NOT included in your club membership.
