NCHC Refund Policy– In the event that there is a cancellation, either by a team (by the posted deadline), the NCHC, or the facility, our refund policy remains in place. We do not issue refunds. However, we do offer full credits for the following year. This is in large part due to the fact that we use the payments made to make non-refundable commitments for facility deposits, awards, programs, etc. If this causes concern or hardship for your program please email rob@flattmail.com to discuss further.
We look forward to being together once again to witness the best homeschool Volleyball teams compete to find out who is the Undisputed National Champion!
2022 Dates: October 20-22, 2022
Team USA- NCHC
Sign Up & Registration Link Below info…
Each year NCHC Events combine for well over 300 Team USA sign ups!
Team USA serves many purposes.
1) Whole team is not attending
2) Do not have a team
3) Dual Rostering*
*This usually happens when a player is “playing up” due to their programs make up. In this case this happens when team they are not receiving a lot of playing time on the current team they are on. For these situations we always advise asking your team coach permission before signing up to dual roster.
Team USA is made up of Home School players from around the country. In many situations Team USA allows players to participate in an NCHC Post Season Event that they would not otherwise be able to. Team USA was birthed in the early 1990’s in San Antonio at the 1st HomeSchool Basketball National Tournament and over the years has been expanded to other events including HomeSchool Volleyball Nationals!
In Team USA you can request to play with your friends or teammates. We have seen many instances were 3-5 players from a team that played together all year and a coach want to play at an NCHC Post Season Event but don’t have enough to field a full team, Team USA is a great opportunity for these situations and others.
For more information or to sign up, go to the following link: Team USA Info & Sign Up
NCHC Policies
NCHC Eligibility Guidelines: Click Here
All Parents, Coaches, & Athletic/Program Directors are required to abide by the posted Eligibility Guidelines; during the NCHC Player, Coaches, & Program registration, all individuals are required to read and agree to abide by the NCHC Eligibility Guidelines; if you have not yet read these yet, please go to the link above and review. The NCHC considers anyone that sits on the bench to be a coach.
Sportsmanship is always encouraged by all parties. Parents or adults should never correct or confront the opposing team’s players, fans, or children.
In addition to these posted eligibility guidelines, NCHC Coaches are held to a higher standard: A coach never confronts opposing fans, students, or players before, during, or after a game. Coaches are responsible for holding themselves, other coaches, & their players accountable for their language & actions, especially on the court. A coach should never confront, yell at, or display threatening body language toward a referee after the game. A coach is only responsible for their own organization’s players, parent’s &/or fans’ behavior. Social Media Policy: It is not acceptable for a coach, Athletic Director, Parent, Player, or team account to make negative social media posts about NCHBC players, fans, referees, directors, or tournaments.
NCHC PERSONNEL POLICY: As an organization, we at the NCHC are committed to hiring trainers & security for every event that we run. This policy was implemented following the 2021 Basketball Postseason, where we had trainers and security hired for all NCHC events. Many NCHC tournaments are run at multiple facilities; our goal is that every facility with more than two courts has a trainer or security member hired to be on-site from open to close.
NCHC Fan* Ejection Policy: If a coach, player, or fan is ejected** from a game by an official or NCHC tournament staff, the following four items must happen:
1. The ejected person must leave the facility immediately, NOT just the gym but the facility.
2. Within 2 hours of the ejection. Notify your Program Director (AD…) & the NCHC (nchbchomeschoolnationals@gmail.com)
3. The person ejected is ineligible to attend an NCHC Event or be on-site or on campus where an NCHC event is being hosted for 24 hours from the time they report it to nchbchomeschoolnationals@gmail.com
4. Within 2 hours, the Head Coach or Program Director must notify NCHC headquarters by emailing nchbchomeschoolnationals@gmail.com
No exceptions. Failure to comply will result in potential additional penalties to individuals, teams, and programs the fan is associated with that could extend into future seasons.
*Fan is defined as ANYONE ejected that was not on the bench as a coach or on the floor as a player at the time of the referee’s ejection.
**This includes but is not limited to: receiving two technical fouls
NCHC Player & Coach* Ejection Policy: If a coach, or player, is ejected** from a game by an official or NCHC tournament staff, the following four items must happen:
1. The ejected person must leave the facility immediately, NOT just the gym but the facility.
2. Notify your Program Director (AD…) & the NCHC (nchbchomeschoolnationals@gmail.com)
3. Within 2 hours, the Head Coach or Program Director must notify NCHC headquarters by emailing nchbchomeschoolnationals@gmail.com
4. The person ejected is ineligible to play in the team’s next game for that specific team. No exceptions. Failure to comply will result in potential additional penalties to individuals, teams, and programs that could extend into future seasons.
*Player & Coach is defined as ANYONE ejected that was on the bench as a coach or on the floor as a player at the time of the referee’s ejection. Anyone else is viewed as a Fan; see above.
**This includes but is not limited to: receiving two technical fouls
NCHC Cancellation Policy/Notice: Any team that gives a full 21-day cancelation notice will receive full credit for any payments made; the credit will be good for any NCHC-run event for one full calendar year. However, any late cancelations will forfeit any payments made, and they will receive an invoice if they have not yet paid. Late cancellations are treated the same as if the team attended the event. We have no desire to make a team pay for an event they didn’t attend; however, this policy is non-negotiable as we require proper notice for brackets, referees, gyms, trophies, etc.
NCHC Late Fee: A $50 late fee will be added to any team fees that are not paid in full 30 days before their events start date.
NCHC Refund Policy: The NCHC does not issue refund checks; we do, however, issue credits for one full calendar year to any NCHC-run event of your program’s choice.
NCHC Must Play Policy: A team entering our events agrees to compete in all tournament games bracketed.
This policy specifically is for teams capable of playing but choosing to leave the tournament with bracketed games.
Failure to do so is a $100 penalty, per game, with additional penalties, including, but not limited to, a future tournament ban.
NCHC Dual Roster & Coaching Policy: Players & Coaches may play & coach multiple different age groups within a program. Players are permitted to play in any age group they qualify for. Players may only play on one team per age group. As always, it is the NCHC policy that teams entering our tournaments have enough primary players and a backup coach to compete; our staff will look at all requests to accommodate dual rostering; however, each player must know who their primary team and each team must have enough primary players to begin each game of the tournament. Ultimately each team must be prepared for conflicts that our staff cannot accommodate.
NCHBC Proof of Age Requirement– Each program must be able (in the event of an age challenge) to provide the NCHBC proof of age via birth certificate for each player. Over the course of 25+ years, each age challenge has been handled this way. Worthy of note, no age challenge has been successful. We accept electronic and physical copies, whichever is more convenient for the team/player to provide in the event of a challenge.
Disciplinary Action: DISCIPLINE: Conduct that would deem such disciplinary action would include violating NCHC eligibility rules, displays of violence, vandalism, blatant disregard for safety, spreading rumors or slander, vulgarity or humiliation of opposing teams or players (this can come from the players, coaches or fans). Participating organizations are responsible for everyone associated with their organizations. Disciplinary action may include a letter of reprimand and a request for a written apology or suspension from participation in NCHC activities for a designated period of time, not to exceed three (3) years. When organizations or individuals are suspended from participating in NCHC activities, those directly involved with any incidents must be named.
NCHC Eligibility In Writing Policy: The NCHC ONLY handles eligibility exemptions or questions in writing. We do NOT handle the questions on the phone. Coaches, Athletic Directors, Parents, & Players, if you have questions about an eligibility situation in your program and you have told the player has been granted an exemption, ask to see it in writing. We are issuing this clarification statement on this NCHC policy which is intended to protect all involved, as eligibility is such an important topic. All eligibility issues must be dealt with in writing, no exceptions.
