_______________________________________________________________________
OUR PHILOSOPHY

NFBV is a non profit organization that features solid organization, reasonable fees, generous player prizes/benefits, great competition, pro level equipment and the opportunity to gain AVPNext player rating points. Most importantly, members have the opportunity to give
something back to the community through our benefit events.

Our leagues & tournaments play under the international beach rules of volleyball determined by the FIVB & AVP. Our leagues are legitimately competitive and are intended for those who prefer that type of game. Our competitive divisions are intended for experienced
players who are familiar with outdoor rules.

Since 2003 we have raised over $11,500 that was donated to local members of our community in need. We are planning more of the same for 2008.

Player Benefits:

AVPNext player membership, 15% AVP online store discounts, discounted AVP Pro Tour event tickets, chance to win AVP gear, & opportunity to earn AVPNext national rankings.
League tees to all participants

Be eligible to win over 40 + individual prizes awarded annually at end of season events. Win cool stuff from Wilson Sporting Goods, VolleyChick, SandSkins and SpikeNashbar to name a few.
Wilson discounted ball program available to all members, save up to 35% off retail $.

What's New for 2009?

Returning teams will have the first right of refusal to register for the 2009 beach season up until 3/15/09.
A $100 per team deposit is due by 3/15/08 to secure a returning team slot. Returning teams are the domain of the team captain from the previous season. If a team captain chooses not to return, the right to that team's domain may be transferred to another team member
who chooses or is elected to become the new team captain. NEW 3's LEAGUE ON THURSDAY NIGHTS!!! First ever Hamptons Open!!

Checks can be made payable to North Fork Beach Volleyball.
Teams may also choose to submit their team registration fees in full.

Fees & Rosters
Team/player fees are $160/team of 4 players each, plus $10 per player for mandatory AVPNext membership.
New team deposits ($100) will be accepted on a first come basis. These new prospective teams will be placed on a waiting list and selected in the order that the deposit checks are received. These deposit checks are refundable in the event that a slot does not become
available. Following 3/15/08, all other team registrations will be taken on a first come basis.

All team rosters need to be submitted by 5/1/08 to confirm team eligibility. NFBV reserves the right to refuse team and player registrations based on previous violations of league code of conduct rules and policies. In fairness to all concerned, intentionally disruptive or
consistently profane behavior will not be tolerated. While on the topic of fairness, AVP rules (as in past) will be enforced. Rules may be downloaded at
http://www.fivb.org.

Since this is a competitive league, we do state that play is intended for intermediate to advanced level players. Prospective players must be at minimum 18 years of age, or at least recent HS grads who will be turning 18 at some point during the calendar year. All players
are required to be 2007 members of AVPNext, which we will have registration forms available. Everyone is also required to sign release waivers that certify physical well being and familiarity of AVP/NFBV rules and policies.

Congratulations to North Fork Beach 4's Champs Kolb Mechanical!

2009 Changes to 3's & 4s league formats & end of season tournament

At the end of last season we polled league players (in person and emails) regarding changes to our league formats.
We've listened to your input and have decided to make some changes for '09.
There will continue be a separate league championship for the regular season and a separate 4s tournament that will be seeded according to regular season finish. But the
tournament will now be open to outside teams.
We look forward to seeing all of you this summer.
-Mike R

Elimination of participation rule. As before, league teams may only play with players listed on team rosters for weekly play. But there will no longer be any participation
standards for the year end tournament.
Change in coed rule. Only 2 players of same gender may play without a player of the opposite gender for 4's. Example: only 2 guys can play without a female player on the court.
(was formally 3 players of the same without another of the opposite). Same applies for 3's.

Teams from outside the league will be permitted to enter the end of season 4s tourney on Sept 12th. All league teams who forfeit 3 or fewer games will be
entitled to free tournament entry. League teams who wish to add additional players for the tournament only may register for the tournament as an outside team. All outside
teams will be subject to a full tournament fee. League teams who've forfeited 4 or more games will be accepted as outside teams and subject to a tournament fee.

New forfeit policy.

Forfeits will be issued to teams that fail to show on time. 4 or more forfeits and lose free team tourney entry benefit. Any forfeit will count in the standings as a loss.

Forfeit Exception: However, if league organizers are given at least one week notice of an inability to field team for a given week, team forfeits will not count against free tourney
entry. But forfeits will count as a loss in standings just the same.

Teams will be entitled for up to 8 advanced notice forfeits before losing free tourney entry. After 8 advance notice forfeits, teams will lose free tourney benefit and have option of
entering tournament as an outside team.
Summation of Forfeit Policy:
4 unexcused forfeits= automatic loss of free tourney entry
8 excused forfeits= max before losing free entry fee
All forfeits =loss in reg season standings
*Any team can register as an outside team after losing free entry*
