REGIONAL VOLLEYBALL ASSOCIATIONS

Regional Volleyball Associations (RVAs) are member organizations of USA Volleyball (USAV). The RVAs serve as the grassroots function for the USAV and individually and collectively serve as a catalyst for USAV functions.

Individual membership in USA Volleyball can be accomplished through your local RVA. There are many classifications of membership, including junior, adult, league, booster and others. Contact your local RVA for more information.

The primary representative of the RVA is the regional commissioner, who is elected by the region for a term of office determined by the region.

Within the regional structure, the commissioner is ultimately responsible for the total function of the RVA, with the assistance of the local organization leadership. This structure is usually comprised of volunteers, each assigned to a specific task or project. Volunteers from throughout the region are essential for the development of camps, players, coaches, referees and scorekeepers. It is accomplished through sanctioned competition, fellowship play, clinics, exhibitions and demonstrations. Communication vehicles such as newsletters, the internet, handbooks and technical literature serve to keep regional members informed.
