2. In the upper right-hand corner of your screen, click Sign In.
3. Enter your email address and click Next.

NEXT - MEMBERSHIPS -  USAV

In order to begin the purchase process, you will need to create a free SportsEngine account or login to an existing SportsEngine account. From there, you will be asked a series of questions to determine what type of membership is right for you.

When you get to the checkout page, you will see two “transactions” that equal the total membership price. One transaction represents the fees going to NERVA, and the other represents the fees going to USAV. This is different from past seasons. You’ll still be charged the same amount – you’re just going to see an itemized breakdown. You may also see two separate charges (totaling the amount of your membership) on a credit card statement. 

After a membership is purchased, you will receive an email outlining the additional steps necessary to become eligible to participate. This can include a background screening, SafeSport certification, etc. Your account will also show these steps.

If a family has multiple players, they can all have their membership information in the same master account, using one set of login credentials (called a “family account”). This is different from past seasons. In the old system, all individuals had to have their own login. In SportsEngine, the primary account holder would be a parent, and each child would have their own profile within that account.

NEW THIS SEASON: Membership cards in the new system will be digital! You will have the ability to pull up a QR code on your phone, and that code can be scanned to show all of the relevant information about a member.
