• Important Information Regarding Section One Volleyball Finals

  Regarding recent reports as to the location of sectional volleyball finals in November, that location has yet to be determined. No decision as to venue has been officially nor tentatively made.

  There is a Request for Proposal process for selecting the venue. That is an open process that will allow venues interested in hosting the finals to submit a proposal and be considered to host the finals. There is no short list of potential or tentative venues.

  The RFP process is not yet under way so it would be inappropriate to discuss potential venues. RFPs will be made available in the near future.

  The final decision will be made by the Section One Executive Committee with recommendations and input from other committees.

  That decision would likely not be made before Aug. 1. At that time, the venue would be announced publicly.
