Overview
Mission
San Diego & Seaside Volleyball Club is a youth volleyball club that offers a variety of volleyball programs, opportunities, and instruction with the mission to build confident young people, to help athletes excel at and develop a life-long love of the sport, and to teach our athletes to have a strong sense of respect for themselves and others.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Club offers a variety of clinics/camps to provide high quality instruction to youth players of a wide range of ages (2nd - 12th grades) and skill levels. The Club's offerings not only teach volleyball but also instill a love for the game, and develop confident, respectful young people.Matches/tournaments held at the Club are a part of the Local Program, which runs throughout the year, and is open for players of all skill levels in 5th grade through high school. There are no tryouts required for this program, rather all players are encouraged to join and develop their skills/love for the game.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 97% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
The verdict
MIXED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
