Latest Event Update

With three-plus months left to go before the 2021 TC NIT, we’d like to remind teams and their supporters of what to expect as the event returns to Kansas City, Feb. 12-15. Ages 13u-18u will play at the Kansas City Convention Center, with 12u at the MAVS club facility. The event is SOLD OUT with 504 teams.

COVID Protocols: Click below to see the full scope of how Triple Crown Volleyball will approach health and safety concerns at the event. This is essential information you need to share with everyone associated with your team and covers everything from entry and exit from facilities to college recruiting to how officiating will be handled.

COVID PROTOCOLS

We are encouraging only one or two adults per rostered player to attend this event — rules will be strict at the KC Convention Center and the MAVS facility. We will utilize all rooms, ballrooms and hallway areas, and spectators will not be allowed to wander.

College Camp Friday (Feb. 12):
We will have more information on this popular feature of the TC NIT around the beginning of 2021. With much of the college volleyball schedule moved to the spring, we are still working out the availability of college coaches.

Rosters/Liability Waivers:
Every athlete must have a liability waiver completed through the TC NIT rostering process. Team admins will advise and assist. All waivers must be signed by Feb. 1 in order to participate in the tournament.

Gate Passes:
All spectators must purchase a pass online to enter the facility — we will make the gate pass link available in early 2021. Cost is $45 for ages 18-older; we highly encourage you to keep those younger than 18 and anyone with underlying health issues at home.

Transportation:
More details will be online in the coming weeks. Charter bus (via Overland Chauffeured Services) from MCI Airport to Convention Center on Friday, Feb. 12 and return trip from Convention Center to the airport on Monday, Feb. 15.

Wave Schedule:
18u, 16u and some 14u and 13u – Morning (starts at 7:30 a.m.)
17u, 15u and some 14u and 13u – Afternoon (start – TBD)
Monday Playoff Brackets – All ages start at 7:30 a.m.
