The HP program will now be referred to as "Select/HP"
Bristol Crush Volleyball Club will be running a Select/HP program, targeted toward girls who are looking to play at a higher level than the regional tournaments. We will be forming/selecting for teams in the 18u, 17U, 16u and 15u, and tentatively 14U age groups. The practice requirements may be more than regional programs, possible two to three per week - one to two weeknights and on Sunday. Practices for HP/select teams will start earlier than the regional programs (the week after Thanksgiving), in order to prepare for the early, national-level tournaments. These teams will be participating in the following tournaments:
NERVA Tournaments:
NERVA I March 2, 2025
NERVA II March 16, 2025
NERVA III March 23, 2025
NERVA IV April 6, 2025
NERVA V April 27, 2025 (Championships)
- NERVA series one-day TOURNAMENTS For 2025 will now be 1/2 day.
- In the event of a NERVA one-day tournament coincides with a weekend tournament, HP teams do not play in that NERVA one-day.
- In addition to the NERVA tournaments, the Select (HP) teams will participate in up to 4 of the following tournaments. Individual teams may attend more than the 4-weekend tournaments at an added cost.
*Information/Tournaments are subject to change
Select/HP teams are intended for the serious athlete, and require a higher level of committment than the regional teams. Select(HP) players are expected to be at most practices and all tournaments, and to plan family vacations around the tournaments.

Each team is required to book a minimum of 5 hotel rooms for accpetance into the tournament. Rooms must be booked throught the THS (tournament housing service) company. Player/parents are responsible for all travel and hotel costs. Parents are responsible for all supervision of players at these weekend tournaments.
