October Region Update

Last Updated on October 21, 2023 by ahadmin

Retirement and Big Thank You's

USAV would like to send a big thank you to Mark Noble (Sun Country) and John Cline (Bayou) for their combined years of service to growing the game and volleyball community!  In addition, we would like to welcome Natasha Campbell (Sun Country) and Angelle Sims (Bayou) to USAV and our region leadership!

Attached are the following three member/membership statistic reports for the 23-24 season (Month of September).  These reports compare numbers for members/memberships purchased through the entire season thus far.

  • FULL Members By Region Age Gender – This report is a total of members who have purchased FULL memberships.  If a member has more than one full membership in a region they are counted once.
  • Total Members By Region Age Gender – This report is a total of members who have purchased any type of membership (full or limited and includes those who purchased tryout memberships but did not upgrade to another membership).  If a member has more than one membership in a region they are counted only once.
  • FULL and LIMITED Memberships by Region Age Gender – This report is a total of all memberships (full and limited).  Each membership will be counted in the totals for a person who has purchased more than one membership.  Note that this number will be higher than our total member count because any member who purchases more than one membership is counted multiple times.

As mentioned at the RVAA meetings, here is the escalation process and methods to get ahold of a customer service team member when you need them. 

Registration products are extra products that SportsEngine offers to specific registrations as extra benefits to your members. some of these products are NCSA, RegSaver, and MedSaver.  please reach out to SportsEngine helpdesk if you would like to talk to someone to remove those products.
