Welcome to another year of volleyball in the Ohio Valley Region.
Registration for the 2021-2022 Season Is Now Open
We recommend that you use Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge as your browser. Internet Explorer is not supported.
For the second season, we are using SportsEngine as our Membership Management System (MMS). This means that you will be logging into SportsEngine instead of Webpoint. The first step is to create an account (not a membership yet) on the SportsEngine system. (An exception is if your club is already using SportsEngine for their website. In that case, you may already have a SportsEngine account.)
Read this closely.
If you have not used SportsEngine previously, the parent/guardian of a Junior player must create their own "Household" account first with their name, email address and birthdate. You will be electronically signing waivers that only an adult can sign.
Then use the "Add A Child" to add your child's information as you purchase the membership for them. Do not purchase a memership for yourself.
USE LEGAL NAMES WHEN REGISTERING! No nicknames in the First Name field.
CAUTION: USA Volleyball is added 300,000 new members to the SportsEngine system last season. You may need to try registering during non-prime time like early morning. It may be busy or slow during the evenings.
When you click on any of the links below, you will be taken to the SportsEngine login screen and be prompted for your email address. If you are a family with a Junior Player, a parent should enter their email address to create an account. One feature with the SE system is the family can add multiple people under one account. That way you only need to remember one login and password instead of one for each participant. But we do recommend that you write down the email address and the password that you entered.
After you enter your email address, if SE finds your email address in its database of logins, you will be prompted for your password. If you do not remember your password for this system, click the button: Forgot?
If SE does not find your email address in its login database, you will be prompted to create an account. Enter the requested information. Again, this should be the adult's (parent/guardian) information not the junior player. You will be prompted later to "Add A Child" if the actual membership will be for a child.
As you register for a membership below, it will look like you are signing up for two memberships. One is the USAV's (National Organization) membership and one is the Ohio Valley Region membership. You must purchase both. The price for the full season membership increased by $5 from last year. They just broke it into pieces so you can see where your money is going. You may also see two separate charges (totaling the amount of your membership) on a credit card statement. The price for the full season membership increased by $5 from last year to help subsidize the Junior Championship Tournament.
NOTE: SportsEngine does not accept American Express credit cards.
Coaches must register for the OVR Coaches Membership even if you are also a club director, official, tournament director, etc.
Moved or Changed Clubs?
If you have moved or you live on a boundary between two Regions, make sure you know in which Region the club you signed with registers. Then use that Region's registration page. If you end up registering in the wrong Region, you must contact the Region office to see about getting your membership canceled.
Different Membership Options
Junior Memberships
Junior Tryout and Full Season Memberships
This is for attending club tryouts during September, October, November or December. Tryout Memberships are valid across Regions. If you purchase a Pioneer or Keystone Region Tryout Membership, you can attend Ohio Valley Region (OVR) tryouts with the same membership and vice versa. The cost is a total of $10 ($5 goes to USAV for insurance and $5 goes to the OVR). Later after you accept a club's invitation to join their club you will come back to this Registration page to purchase a Full Season Junior Membership (Female Juniors $67 and Male Juniors $47). If you sign to play with a club in a different Region, make sure you go to that Region's registration page in order to register correctly in their Region. The cost of the Full Season Membership will be reduced by the $10 you have already paid provided you give the club this same email address. If you give them a different email address, you will end up creating a second account and the $10 Tryout fee will not be deducted.
Before you sign up for a Membership. Please watch this short video about the Tryout process.
AGAIN THIS SEASON: You will NOT pick a club as you register. The club will pick you and send you a Club Assignment email. Do NOT purchase a full season membership until you receive that email.
Registration Steps: READ THESE!!!
