FAQS
OUR COACHES:
At Club Ririe, we are dedicated to providing the best coaching staff for our young athletes. Each season we strive to provide quality coaching for each of our teams. Each coach undergoes an intense background check through AAU (Amateur Athletic Union). We are always looking for knowledgeable and enthusiastic coaches to join our team. Contact either Club Directors Kathryn Nelson, Angel Young or Lynne Sickinger if interested.
TEAMS & TRYOUTS/PLACEMENT:
Teams are determined based on age and skill level. U10-U12 are considered learning teams as most players are new to volleyball. U13-U18 are considered competitive teams. Tryouts/Team Placement may be necessary to ensure players are on the correct teams to give them the best experience and to ensure we have enough coaches and gym time. Players can be moved up or down depending on skill and team need.
We can not guarantee players will be on the same team as friends or family. If there is an issue/concern we need to be made of aware regarding teammates please email or contact one of the club directors.
​
If you have a child who is just younger than the U10 AAU age division but would like them to play, we will put them on a wait-list as we want to give those of the correct age priority to be placed on a team first.
NON-RIRIE ATHLETES:
Club Ririe was created to help benefit the student athletes at Ririe and the Ririe school volleyball programs. We are happy to take and look at sign up forms from potential players that do not attend Ririe but please know that if we need to limit the number of players on our teams that Ririe athletes will take priority over non-Ririe athletes.
Young Men:
Young men are allowed to participate in the EIVA Club Volleyball program with some restrictions. Young men must play up an age group. Example if your son is U12 age he must play on a U13/U14 team. Young men can only play in Saturday Leagues or Power Tournaments and teams with boys cannot advance to the gold division bracket for that tournament.
​
We recommend young men go through Crow Creek Volleyball club. This is a boys only volleyball club program in Idaho Falls. For more info visit crowcreekvb.com
