For the 2025 fall volleyball season, RYA will continue to participate in the NECO Volleyball league. We ask for you to continue to show RYA and NECO patience as we continue to get used to how this new league is being executed.

NECO will not be allowing ANY player to play up divisions. Every player MUST play in the correct grade division. If you register your child for an incorrect division or change their birthday information to try to play in a different division your child will be moved to the correct division by the RYA volleyball chair and board of directors. Please ensure your child is registered correctly and if there are issues while registering, please email [email protected].

RYA does acknowledge that the price of sports is increasing. It is important to realize that the cost of youth sports is increasing across the country. We have faced increases in our league fees, uniform and equipment costs, referee fees, and overall operating cost to the organization. We are doing our best to keep prices as low as possible. NECO covers the cost of refs, table help, insurance, facility fees, custodial fees and medals for the tournament.

Practices will begin the week of August 25th, 2025. Depending on who your coach is will depend on what days of the week and what location you will practice at. At minimum practices will be 1 hour long - twice a week. Locations - Hoff Elementary, Hudson Elementary, Weld Central Middle School or CCA. You will hear from a coach no later than August 21st.

NECO does separate the teams based on grade level for the most part - we will do our best to accommodate siblings and families, but we may be unable to grant requests. We are looking for 8-9 children per team.

Games will be played beginning September 6th and ending in a tournament, October 18th and 25th.

There will be two games each day and scheduling will be done to keep them as close together in time as possible.

Games will take place in Fort Morgan, Brush, or Wiggins.

Season dates:

September 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th

October 4th, 11th ending with the tournament October 18th and 25th.

The girls will play 12 regular season games and a minimum of 2 games in the tournament - double elimination.

THESE DATES CAN CHANGE! YOU WILL HEAR FROM A COACH WITH FURTHER DETAILS!

We are currently needing a head coach and an assistant coach for the 3rd-4th grade team. If you are interested in coaching the 3rd-4th grade team please contact us at [email protected]. All other teams do have coaches at this time.

Starting in 2021, RYA will not be allowing any player to play up a grade level or age division without prior approval from the RYA Board or Directors. If you register your child for the incorrect age division your child may be moved down per board discretion. 

Please be advised that RYA is made up of several surrounding communities and you may have to practice in Lochbuie, Hudson, or Keenesburg. These will be determined by your volunteer coaches availability as well as space, since this is limited! There will be absolutely no refunds if you are not happy with your practice location or times! This is out or our control and we do not have teams split by geographical locations, it is done by a random draw. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but this is also not a guarantee, and we will not issue a refund if you are unhappy with the team or practice location that you end up with.

Rebels Youth Athletics (RYA) does have a fund for people suffering hardships who may need assistance for registration fees to children, who without financial assistance would be unable to participate in RYA sports programs. RYA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with limited funding available for hardships. No guarantee of assistance is implied by this statement. If you are in need of assistance please reach out to any board member in person or through email at [email protected].
