Our Team is doing their part by doing the following everyone’s safety

• Masks are not required at drop off or while being outside with us at Newland street beach courts.
• Parents are welcome to come to our practices, we ask that they do not interrupt practices and are respectful to our coaches while we are in session.
• We encourage everyone to allow athletes to approach the check in table without a parent of guardian.
• Social distancing is encouraged whenever possible for everyone’s safety.
• If you are dropping-off or picking-up at our Newland location, there is a roundabout for dropping off athletes. We ask you do not park there for any length of time as a courtesy to others.
• Parking at Newland is $15 per day or you can purchase a 2022 parking permit from Spiker Beach for $50.

training packages – missed sessions – make up sessions

Spiker Beach club seasons offers packages, not single sessions and we charge via a reoccurring billing system monthly. Should you start week 2 or 3 of month we prorate the first months payment. Our Athletes are placed into a set schedule in order to maintain the Athlete to Coach ratio ensuring the best training experience for everyone. Not showing up without notice forfeits the training session. However, this Spring we will allow make up sessions on occasion for illnesses or special events but we need to know in advance of the day and you have 30 days to use them.

Spiker Beach summer season will not be offering make up days. However summer club participants can opt to change the days within a given week (subject to availability in the schedule). All change of day request can be submitted via email and are due no later than 12pm the week before the change is to occur.

Weather Cancellations

We do our best to keep an eye on our weather conditions, should conditions require a cancellation we will be posting updates on our Instagram site @spikerbeachvb

Dress for the weather

Please pack/prep for our sessions like it will be a day at the beach. Potentially packing: comfortable clothes, layers/socks for cooler temps, towel, water, snack, hat, shades, and plenty of sunscreen. We do have a drinking faucet at the beach, however, please do your best to arrive with the water you may require for your 2hr. practice.

Cool/Cold Weather can present some challenges for our athletes. Cooler temps. wet sand and ocean breezes can create cold/wet playing conditions. Please bring some extra layers and sand socks to practices. Don’t forget your sunscreen, towel and water.

About Tournament Coaching Expectations

Coaching is a bonus, not a given. We have prepared our athletes to manage themselves in match situations. With that said we need everyone’s help to make these events a success for our athletes and for Spiker Beach. We have outlined some of our policies regarding athletes and parents representing Spiker Beach at tournaments.

Coach Contact during Match Play

If there is not a coach at your court, please do not text or call coaches. In addition to this, during match play do not communicate with coaches while they are coaching, either when they are on the sideline or during team huddles.

Tournament Uniforms

Players MUST be wearing Spiker gear at tournaments. This includes both the shorts and the tank top. You cannot tuck your shirt up or alter the uniform in any way. This is in accordance with NCAA standards. If you do not follow these guidelines you will not receive coaching at AVP First, BVCA, and AAU events.

Outside Coaching

During specific events, including AAU or an AVP First events if you are playing with a non-Spiker Beach athlete you cannot accept outside coaching during match play.

Parent Expectations

Parents please abide by the rules set out for you. They vary from tournament to tournament but are generally: You are allowed to positively cheer for your player or team, you are not allowed to instruct or direct your player or team and you are not allowed to interact with the officials.

social media

Athletes and parents we ask you to tag @spikerbeachvb in all social media posts.
