Indoor adult foreign Guest officials
We are happy to have guest officials from other Federations come to officiate our events. Due to issues that have taken place in other sports, USA Volleyball revised its policy for Foreign Participants. (Officials who are members of other Federations.) The goal here is to be sure that all athletes are able to experience a safe environment during competition.
The Foreign Guest Officials Membership link is now available for folks from Canada, Puerto Rico, and other countries to sign up. The process is streamlined and easy to follow, but you must make sure you complete all the steps.

Good standing requirements
USA Volleyball requires that all Foreign Guest Officials be IN GOOD STANDING with their home federation.
It is STRONGLY recommended that each official contact their Federation Leadership to make sure they are IN GOOD STANDING and able to work in the USA.
USAV will obtain confirmation from that country that each official is IN GOOD STANDING, and final sign off on eligibility will be held until the IN GOOD STANDING status is confirmed.

sPORTWRENCH
Many of the tournaments require registration and application in SportWrench. When entering your profile, do not choose USA as your country if you are coming from a federation in Puerto Rico (even though that is technically correct!) Please choose Puerto Rico as your country. After that you will not be required to enter a USAV member number.
If you have already set up your profile and you need to correct it, you must edit your profile. Click on your name in blue in the top right so it brings up your user profile in SportWrench, and in the top right of that there is a country drop down where you can select Puerto Rico. Once you do that, you are no longer required to enter a USAV Registration # to update their official profile.
