Alliance Program
Join our Indoor Alliance Program!
Our Indoor Alliance Program was so successful last year, we are going to expand the program in 2024! The idea behind the IAP is simple:
Support clubs that support us in the mission to grow the game of volleyball.
As most folks are aware, Rally Volleyball is NOT a club. We do not want to compete with the amazing clubs already in the marketplace instead we want to leverage our expertise to support clubs. Some think we are idealistic but we feel cohesion in the marketplace is possible. We want to partner with clubs/groups** at a business level, leaving the competition to the volleyball courts. The growth in our indoor tournaments is proof this is the way forward!
How do we do this? We free-up clubs from the burden of feeling that they need to host tournaments to earn critical extra $ to support themselves. Or if they don’t host events, they are missing out somehow. We believe clubs should be free to do what they do best and coach/train the athletes. Personally as parents, we know we want our coaches focused on our kids. Let clubs do their thing and we will do our thing. Our thing is to provide the best possible tournaments, unique opportunities and give back. Many clubs feel they have to host tournaments to earn critical extra money. This program changes that scenario and pressure!
The Indoor Alliance Program benefits all clubs, large and small. No behind-the-scenes conversations but open, straightforward information. Clubs** can utilize the extra dollars to put back into their clubs as they see fit. We will continue to work diligently paying back building & development costs, insurance, facilitating new volleyball technology programs, and injury prevention research, among other items.

Marketing
- As part of the Indoor Alliance Program, RallyVB and the club would promote each other as follows:
- Web banner of RallyVB events (RallyVB provides)
- RallyVB logo on website linked to our website
- Club logo on RallyVB website and linked to their website
- RallyVB logo/url on all printed marketing and eBlasts pertaining to tournaments
Registration
Commitments are due no later than Dec. 1st via registration on AES for events. After registration, send an email to info@rallyvb.com highlighting the events registered and the Alliance Program request.
For indoor volleyball, we feel having many tournaments on the same weekend, spreading out athletes, creating a small turn-out at each event, or alternatively, going to mega-events with 300+ teams where the money goes back into the pocket of one club is not as helpful for most athletes or clubs. We are proud to help give money back so clubs can grow their membership however they see fit. It’s done by working together where you help us and we help you!
* Club team size is evaluated by location or individual satellite, not combined across locations
** Club is defined as the entity that is registered with a national governing body. We will hold accountable each individual club as an entity, based on how they are registered within USAV, region, or governing body. (ie satellites/sisters of clubs would be considered a separate entity, in turn, it will be treated as its own club)
