Clubs cannot submit rosters for JVA events until all adults on rosters have a verified background screen. For more information on our background screen policies, please click here.

**New for the 2023-2024 season. Any adults with a cleared AAU background screen will be able to be added to a JVA roster in AES and TM2Sign. AAU coaches do not need to complete the JVA Background Screen form. JVA will no longer be accepting USAV background screens.

Event Information

New for 2024: With the limited number of 18’s teams who registered last year and the overwhelming numbers of teams who are interested in participating in the 12u-17u divisions, we have decided to not have an 18’s division at Summerfest.

Also, teams registered in Open/Premier (Club/Classic) will select which division they prefer to participate in approximately 1 month prior to the event date via Google Form. Note: division preference is not guaranteed. Teams that do not select either division will be placed appropriately in a division by the JVA Seeding Committee.

For general event questions or if you need more information, please contact tournaments@jvavolleyball .org.

Ohio Concussion Requirements

The JVA requires one rostered staff member per team to complete an approved training course prior to working at competitions.

Lindsay’s Law

The state of Ohio has developed guidelines and materials to inform and educate youth athletes participating in an athletic activity, their parents, and their coaches about the nature and warning signs of sudden cardiac arrest.

All club directors or coaches will need to turn in a COACHES SIGN IN FORM at team check in verifying that all parents, players and coaches affiliated with our organization have completed all necessary requirements for the Sudden Cardiac Awareness training (Lindsay’s Law) AND Concussion training required by the State of Ohio.
