Camps/Training Page
The coach of the winning team is responsible for reporting the score of the game within 48 hours of the game being played.  Coaches can access score reporting from several places (after logging into their Coach account):
  • Report Scores menu option on the Portals->Coach menu
  • Report Score box in upper right corner of Coach Portal
  • My Team Schedule section of Coach Portal
  • Subscribe to Score Reporting Notifications and receive email with link on game day
  • ALL parents/guardians must fill out the GCCYS Liability Waiver form for each of their children. A copy of the filled out form will be sent to the email address you specify on the waiver. In addition, after submitting the form, you may choose to print it out for your own records.

    Players will not be allowed to participate in league games until the waiver has been submitted. PLEASE NOTE, that a liability waiver only needs to be filled out once per school year. If your daughter participated in fall volleyball and is playing winter basketball, there is no need to fill out another form.

    If you create a user account before you fill out a waiver form, you can view and edit your form from your Subscriber Portal. You must be logged into the web site when you fill out your waiver form to take advantage of this.

    Girls Volleyball Tournament - Tentative Gym Schedule

    Updated on 10/3: The girls volleyball tournament (October 10-13) is fast approaching and we have put together a list of preliminary site assignments for the tournament.  Please note that when a time is listed such as 5:30-8:30, that means the first game starts at 5:30pm and the last game starts at 7:30pm, meaning that we hope the last game ends by 8:30pm.  All teams will be seeded and assigned to brackets beginning late on Sunday and the schedule will be out by noon on Tuesday at the latest.  All first round matches (for brackets greater than 8 teams), will be played mostly on Friday with a few Thursday matches.  Quarter-final and semi-final matches on Saturday, and championship matches on Sunday.
