USAV memberships and dues

HOW THE MONEY WORKS:

1. The club reimburses $25 per player no matter what you do.
2. If you register online, you pay $45 total, get reimbursed $25, and therefore pay $20 for a year-long membership.
3. If you register at a tournament, you pay $50 total, get reimbursed $25, and therefore pay $25 for a year-long membership.
4. If you don’t get a full membership and instead opt to only play in one tournament, it is a $25 one-time fee. You can choose to upgrade this to a full membership without penalty - you just pay the difference and the cost to you (and the team) is as stated above. If you don't choose to upgrade.........

START HERE, then move to SECTION A, B, C based on the following:

Question #1: Did you play "juniors" club? aka when you were in high school, did you play club volleyball and play in tournaments? 

If YES -- use section C to register, since it is likely that you are already in the system.

If NO -- proceed to question #2.

Question #2: Have you registered before?

If YES -- use section A to RENEW your  membership.

If NO -- use section B to register with USAV.

If NOT SURE -- read the section called "How to check"

HOW TO CHECK:

If you have been a member previously, go to: https://webpoint.usavolleyball.org/wp15/IntraLock/Login.asp

In the blue menu on the far left of your screen, there is a tab called "My Information." Click this.

Near the top of the second column, about the 4th line, it says what type of membership you have, whether or not it's Current, and the date it expires.

SECTION A: Renewing an existing membership (if you were previously a member):

1. Go to http://www.yankee.org/administration/membershipApplication.php
2. To login: the email address you used to sign up is your username.

SECTION C: If you played Juniors before:

There have been a few cases of yankee membership confusion to the tune of "I tried to register for the first time but it claims that I already exist...is there someone out there with my same name?! and if so how do I register as me?"
Props to Nadia for figuring out that she was already listed because she played club at the junior level, and so was already in the system from that. Linda Wang (same situation) was able to log in with her old account, update her information under the "Renew membership" tab, list herself as "unaffiliated adult" and be upgraded from junior to adult level.
So next time someone (especially a freshman with skills!) gets confused about yankee already having someone with their name, consider this possibility. The solution may involve that person contacting her parents for the login info...leave a day for this information exchange to occur! ;-)
