4-23-2020 Update
NERVA has decided not to extend the NERVA 1 day events and to cancel them but will sanction club play once USA Volleyball allows it. In addition, USA Volleyball is now allowing online training.
AVA is working with local clubs and will provide volleyball when it is allowed including indoor and outdoor play. Thank you for your kind words and support during these difficult times.
Dear AVA Members,
We are a close community of nearly 100 students and over 200 parents, coaches and family members and it is hard for each and everyone of us to have to pause our club’s volleyball practices and matches.
However, we are part of a regional, national and global community that is currently tasked with doing everything we can to slow down the spread of the flu and the coronavirus.
Social Distancing is a proven way to reduce the impacts and slow down the spread of any virus. This is the underlying reason we and our towns and our governing bodies are temporarily suspending practices and tournaments.
Please be well, wash your hands, observe all precautions and we will see you all back on the court as soon as possible.
