March Brings Tournaments Aplenty For NCVA

NCVA Volleyball Players Throughout NorCal Will Have Plenty Of Options To Stay Local This Spring

With multiple NCVA tournaments taking place almost every weekend, March represents one of the busiest months of the spring season for the Northern California Volleyball Association. 

For clubs and parents looking to keep travel to a minimum, the Girls Premier League is a quality option throughout the month. Premier League #2 will take place March 2-3 for 12/11s, 16/15s and 18/17s with sites varying depending on district. Later in the month, Premier League #3 takes place on March 23-24 with 12/11s, 14/13s and 18/17s competing at district sites.

Girls Power League #2 will take over the San Mateo Event Center on the first two weekends of March. 11s and 12s will compete on March 3 while 13s take center stage on March 9. For 14s, 15s and 16s, Power League #3 is ready to roll this month with 15s competing in San Mateo on March 9, 14s joining the fray on March 10, and 16s squaring off on March 24 at Cal Expo in Sacramento as well as the Capital Sports Center in McClellan.\

Spots at USA Volleyball’s Girls Junior Nationals are on the line for some age divisions in March. The 17/18s that have combined through the season will separate to determine representatives for Nationals. The 18s Power League Championships will be held March 2-3 at the Capital Sports Center and the 17s Power League Championships are set for March 16-17 at SAFE Credit Union Convention Center in Sacramento.

Teams from out of the region as well as teams not competing in Power or Premier League have three special tournament options in March. On March 9-10, Capital Sports Center hosts March Madness for all age divisions (11s-18s). March Madness is unique due to a variety of different rules (no timeouts, running timer clock and more) as well as the added twist that teams are encouraged to wear costumes.

On March 16-17, all age divisions are invited to compete in the Golden State Classic at the San Mateo Event Center. And, on March 23-24, the International Agri-Center in Tulare plays host to the Spring Fling, which is also open to all age divisions and is making its return after a one-year hiatus due to flooding in Tulare last year.

Finally, the first Girls Qualifier of the season is also set to take place in March. The Sierra National Qualifier for 18s will take place from March 16-18 at SAFE Credit Union Convention Center. All USAV regions are eligible to compete, and teams from California, Oregon, Arizona and more are slated to compete for a bid to Junior Nationals.
