dates. Teams will play everyone in their Gold/Silver pool. Each team
will either play 4 or 5 matches on the 2nd and 3rd playing dates.

JVDA Elite Invite
Scrimmage - April 19th and 20th, 2008
Coaches and Directors,
I just wanted to say thank you to all of the teams that made the trip to
Maumee, Ohio this past weekend. We feel as though the event was a huge
success! We greatly appreciate all of you sending your teams to the event,
and we would like to make it an annual one. There were 42 college coaches
that signed in for the event, so recruiting was certainly at a high point.
We hope that you all enjoyed yourselves and found the weekend to be
excellent competition. Good luck to all of the teams this season and we will
see you all in Louisville in June! .Click here for the
