Conflicts
If a student has a conflict with a volleyball
commitment (game or practice) they should discuss it with their head coach as
soon as possible. If the conflict is with another school commitment, this
should be brought to the athletic director for a decision with advisement from
school administration on how to move forward. School policy has been set for
how to determine which school commitments a student should attend in the case
of conflicts.
Cost
There is no
cost for a student to attend tryouts for a team.
Based on last
year’s costs, volleyball fees will be roughly $150.00 per athlete who makes the
team. A specific fee will be determined and applied to each student’s
PowerSchool account at the end of the season based on this season’s costs
(officials, entry fees for tournaments) and the numbers of players on each
team. If the team makes Provincials, Border Land School Division will cover all
registration, transportation, and accommodation costs (if travel requires it)
for that event.
Qualifying for Provincials
Teams need to
win their Zone Championship to qualify for Provincials. A wildcard spot may
also be available based on the MHSAA determined draws for provincials. A
wildcard application will only be considered if a team makes the semifinals or final
in zone playoffs. Wildcard games are played at a neutral site with the winner
of that game qualifying for Provincials.
Missed Class Time
Students are
expected to communicate their sport-related absences to each of their classroom
teachers. They must plan with each teacher regarding how they will make up
missed classwork.
Transportation
Competing
athletes are expected to arrive and depart with the school team, not in their
own vehicles. Students driving each other is NOT ALLOWED (BLSD Policy). If a
parent would like to take their child home from an away game, these arrangement
should be made with the WCMC general office before the team departs. Any
student leaving an event with their parents must inform their teacher chaperone
or head coach prior to their departure. Students will only be allowed to leave
an event outside of Altona with another family under special circumstances.
All special
travel arrangements should be made by one of the student’s parents or guardian
with the school administrators during regular office hours (8 am - 4 pm) prior
to the team departure.
