As a club owner my absolute top priority has always been to get players ready for their MS and HS season. We are doing this right now, all the way to February 27th, 4 days prior to HS season starting. HS coaches will inherit players who will have practiced twice a week and participated in our newly formed "covid" league. Our teams are sent to AAU nationals in Florida every June to compete in the largest girls junior tournament in the world, 2758 teams entered in the 2018/19 season, where over 90% of teams competing are club teams, where over 500 scouts and other collegiate recruiting personnel and staff attend. So to day that kids will be missing out on this is false and a myth. HS coaches are the first ones to direct talented players towards the next steps for scholarship. Also the up to 2017 as I don't have 18 or 19 numbers. The top sport for girls in Colorado is volleyball, however despite claims been made left right and center it has the lowest percentage of scholarships given. Volleyball
2017: 27
2016: 23
2015: 43
2014: 25
4 year total: 118 (out of 9,446)= 1.25 percent.
Our club like all others have been negatively affected by covid, however our club season serves as preparation to MS and HS season not the opposite. www.jumpstartvba.com

My son only plays in the HS season. Because of all of the changes this summer, his church trips were already postponed to next summer meaning he will most likely not play volleyball at all as they will likely overlap. I know we all have to be flexible, but there seems to be a viable option that works best for those who will be participating. Please consider the change.

This pandemic has caused extreme stress on our children due to all the of this schedule change. Asking a high school student to choose between club and high school is like asking a mom to choose between her children.

Eliminate the conflict between HS and club teams for 2020. Do not penalize the athletes by enforcing a rule that does not make sense during this pandemic. Allow them to play both.

Agree with this change. Switching the girls and boys seasons makes the most sense.
