Community help
Find volleyball opportunities, share an event or job, and keep your listings accurate.
Find opportunities
Browsing is public; you do not need to sign in. Choose Events, Camps/Clinics, Leagues, Other, or Jobs. Use Search and, for events, Playing format, Gender / division, and City or venue to narrow the results.
Open More filters for state, audience, dates, and verified sanction status. Active filters appear below the search controls; remove one or choose Clear filters to broaden the search. A format and division search matches a combination the organizer actually offers.
The Calendar offers week, month, and 3-month views. Next, Previous, and Today change the date range. Open an event for its venue, city, dates, divisions, organizer contact, and details link. Share a listing or a filtered search with the Share controls.
Registration stays with the organizer. Follow Organizer details or use the public contact information for registration, prices, eligibility, availability, cancellations, and rules. Community does not take registrations or payments.
Sign in to post or manage a listing
- Choose Sign in, enter your email address, and select Email me a sign-in link.
- Open the email link within 30 minutes, using the browser where you want to manage your listings.
- On the confirmation page, select Continue to my listings. This extra step protects the one-time link from ordinary email scanners.
- In My community listings, choose New listing.
Use the same email address to return to your listings. If a link has expired or is unavailable, request a new one. Check your spam folder if the message does not arrive. Requests are rate-limited, so repeated requests may require waiting before trying again.
Community contributor access is separate from RMS staff access. You do not need an RMS staff account to submit a Community listing.
Create an accurate event or job listing
- Choose the post type and a matching category. Enter your organization, a clear title, a short summary, and a full description.
- For events, choose the audience and each actual format/division offered. Formats include 6s, 4s, 2s (doubles), and Other. Divisions include Men’s, Women’s, Coed, Reverse coed (RevCo), and Open / any gender.
- Select complete combinations: for example, Men’s 6s and Women’s 4s. Selecting those two does not create Men’s 4s or Women’s 6s. Describe an Other format in Other format description. Leave divisions unselected when a playing format does not apply, such as a general clinic.
- Enter the event start and end dates, the venue or location name, city, and two-letter state. Both dates are required; use the same start and end date for a one-day event. Use a separate listing for each confirmed event date; use a start/end range for one event that spans several days.
- For a job, provide an application deadline or select Keep this job open until filled. Include the work location and how to apply.
- Provide a public contact email, a complete HTTPS details/registration/application link, or both. Only enter contact information that you intend to publish.
- Review the details and select Submit for review.
Use the full description for skill level, cost, schedule, eligibility, and participation rules. Explain your reverse coed rules and any custom format clearly. Confirm the venue and date before submitting.
Understand review and sanction status
New listings start as Pending and become public after regional review. Signing in or submitting a listing does not publish it. If a submission is rejected, review the note in My community listings, correct the information, and submit it again.
You may claim USAV / Excelsior sanctioning on an event. The public sanctioned-event mark appears only after staff independently verifies that status during publication review. A contributor claim or ordinary publication does not establish a verified sanction.
Community information is submitted by organizers. Publication is not an endorsement. Confirm the current details directly with the organizer before registering, paying, or attending.
Edit, withdraw, or renew a listing
Sign in with the email used to submit the listing, then open My community listings. Choose Edit to correct details. Saving an edit returns the listing to Pending, removes it from public view, and clears any previous sanction verification until staff reviews it again.
Choose Withdraw when an event is cancelled or an opening is no longer available. A withdrawn listing cannot be edited; create a new listing if you need to post it again.
Published events stop appearing after their end date. Dated jobs stop appearing after their application deadline. Open-until-filled jobs have a one-year renewal window; keep the information current and withdraw a job when it is filled. An expired event needs a new current or future date before it can be submitted again.
