Wow. Your absolute ignorance is amazing. Where do I start...

 

Your wrong about USA. All it takes is to be in a big region like OVR and attend their Regional Bid Tourney

 

Let me stop you right there. You have to build up enough quality wins during the regular season to even make the Regional Bid Tourney, there's a seeding system. Only 24 or 28 (depending on age group) teams get in. You don't just "show up". In AAU you can just "show up"

 

They give out National and American bids in the OVR like water.

 

Really? Like Water. They give out 2 national and 3 American bids to a 24 team bracket. That's 20% of entrants who get a bid, and that's on top of having to qualify to even be there.

 

100% of the people who mail in their entry form get into the AAU National Championship. You could play no matches all season and still go to AAU Nationals as long as your check clears. Which one seems more like water to you?

 

How many teams at NKYVC qualified Open last year?

I don't know. But if it's not a lot, then you're proving my point on how competitive USA volleyball is. Name any NKJV team that's playing OPEN at a USA National Qualifier.

 

NKYVC's 16's team got a National bid, which is a LOWER than the USA division that NKJV is about to play in

Wrong again. Look it up. It goes..

OPEN

NATIONAL

USA

AMERICAN

PATRIOT

 

KIVA, who has been a TOP 5 club in the United States for longer than NKYVC has been around, doesn't go to ANY USAV Qualifiers or Nationals and strictly goes to AAU.

 

And neither does Sports Performance, Milwaukee Sting, or any of the other top JVA clubs. So your point is what? It's easier to get into USA Nationals than AAU? I think even the JVA Board of Directors would disagree with that.

I didn't say easier, I said USAV is not better than AAU. And earning a national bid is done at the region level and in no way compares to the Qualifier process in my opinion. A case could be made for the American division being better at the top end, as only the top American team in a qualifier gets a bid. I know for a fact that the 9th placed teams have gotten bids in some years due to reallocation bids and trickle down bids in the OVR. Again, top 9 of 24 in a region! Wow that's a world beater which deserves rewarded.

 

The open field is limited to how many? The USA? National? American?

Do you have any idea how many teams are in the US? How many of them have kids that are just as good if not better than many who earn a regional bid to nationals?

Sign your registration form, send your check, and then step onto the court AND EARN your place, while being seen by every college coach in the country. That sounds fair to me.

 

There is quality volleyball being played in multiple levels.

Before you get things backwards, I'm not saying that any team going to USAV Nationals shouldn't go and isn't deserving. Or that qualifying at a National Qualifier isn't an impressive feet. But you made a point of placing the National division ahead of USA per USAV rankings. I disagree with that from a philosophical prospective. I also don't believe in the whole qualifier process and think its a money scam. If I'm wrong then why doesn't all that money they make at National Qualifiers go to some non-profit or to provide a scholarship fund for kids in that region? The culmination of our sports recruiting process is hammered out by watching girls at Nationals. Why would you wish to limit that to 24-48 teams per division? Do you have any idea how many kids play volleyball across the united states? Why not let all the kids worthy of being recruited be recruited?

 

Yes I am A JVA/AAU fan over USAV concerning Nationals. Sue me.

You are completely out of salient points and grasping for anything now.

Does anyone know where some of these girls are going to play in college?

On NKYVC 16s, I know the Bush girl is going to Purdue, but anything on the others?

What about NKJV? Any recruiting going on there as well?

Are you talking about just 16's for both clubs? Verbal commitments should be on their respective website rosters, but I think the only player verbally committed on either 16 #1 's team is Bush. 16's club season is still a little early for most, a lot of offers will come over the summer.
