Travel Reservations now available
The travel site is called http://www.ytbtravel.com/volleyballtravel.
Please use the site anytime and the money earned will
go towards Club Storm.
When you are looking for hotels, flights
or car rentals, using this site will help your club
recoup 85% of the commission money. The booking agent
and supplier of the site will earn 15%. So, an example
might look like this: Club Storm rents 50 rooms x 2
nights at $50.00 per night . That is 5k for the rooms.
You get between 8 to 10 % commission; 10% would be $500.00.
85% of that goes to your club ($425.00) and 15% ($75.00)
goes to the agent. Several clubs around our area use
this to make money, including Pinellas Heat, and they
pay $50.00 per month to maintain the site plus $450.00
to open it. Because you are a non-profit organization
I am giving you my site and will work with Vicky Page
to product weekly reports that will let you know how
you are doing.

Dear Club Storm families,
I am sending you our Final Club
Storm Tournament Schedule for our upcoming
season. We have entered these SEVEN tournaments and
our Entry fees have been sent in. Unless something unexpected
arises, we will be playing in the following tournaments:
** Please note that the actual playing
schedule of your team will NOT be posted until the Wednesday
or Thursday BEFORE each tournament. This is just @48
hours before game time. The tournament director will
post the schedule on their website so I will find out
at the same time that you will know. There are two playing
times on Saturday- the AM Wave (@8:00am - 2:00pm) and
the PM Wave (@2:00pm - 8:00pm) Each age level is placed
in one of these two time blocks. I will immediately
email the Club when I find out the final playing schedule
but it will NOT BE posted until a day or two before
each tournament. PLEASE do not email me before this
time asking when your team plays... I will not know
the answer. The Sunday schedule is determined by how
well we do on Saturday.
