Stay, Play, and Save Policy:

Tampa Volleyball Tournaments are implementing the "Stay, Play, and Save" policy that has been instituted for most Junior National Qualifiers and several other Florida tournaments. Each team registering for the tournament must make its hotel reservations through AwayTeam at an approved Tampa Volleyball Tournament hotel to be eligible to participate in the tournament. The approved hotel list is generated by AwayTeam. Implementing the Stay, Play, and Save policy increases the amount of room nights available to teams and clubs and helps police the rates. Room nights allow us to work with our host cities, this year and beyond.

Special Situations:

1. Does your team/club already have a signed hotel contract outside of our approved room list? Please email AwayTeam a copy of your hotel contract and explain your needs. We will try and incorporate those rooms into our approved hotel list.

2. If you are a local team that does not need hotel rooms, please contact TVT-Admin. Make sure to specify the Tampa Slam.

3. If your team intends to rent a house, use a time share, or stay with local family/friends, please contact TVT-Admin for approval.
