Hotel & Travel Information
Stay and Play Policy
USA Volleyball is enacting a "Stay and Play" policy effective for the 2009 USA Girls' and Boys' Junior Olympic Volleyball Championships. Each team registering for JOs must make its hotel reservations through THS, at an approved USA Volleyball hotel to be eligible to participate in either of the USA Junior Olympic Championships. The approved hotel list is generated by USA Volleyball and THS.
Reasons for implementing the Stay and Play policy are to increase the amount of room nights available to teams and clubs and to help police the rates the hotels are offering. By increasing the amount of room nights actually used for the purpose of attending our events, USA Volleyball is able to prove to the host cities our positive impact on their local economy, thus building stronger relationships as well as helping to offset convention center pricing.
THS is and will continue to guarantee the lowest group rates available through continual rate integrity checks (exclusions include single/king bedded rooms, employee rates, government rates, AAA and AARP rates). Rates range widely, starting as low as $79. THS offers programs for travel agents and will work with any club or team that may have a special situation (please see Special Situations below). If you still are unsure, or think you have found a better rate, please feel free to call THS.
Special Situations
If you are in a situation listed below, call THS and ask for more information on how we can help.
-
Do you already have a signed hotel contract? Please email Kelli or Krystle a copy of your Hotel contract and what your needs are. We will try and incorporate those rooms into our approved hotel list.
-
Do you want to use a hotel not currently on our list of approved hotel? Email us the hotel name, address and number of rooms you are interested in. If you have been quoted already a rate, please provide us that information.
-
Do you want to use your own travel agent? We have a travel agent program. Please have your travel agent contact THS for programs details.
-
If you are a local team, not in need of hotel rooms, please contact USA Volleyball's Event Department (719.228.6800, specify which event).
If your club or team has already made housing arrangements, but they are not with the approved hotels, you must contact THS.
