SMASH enters teams in NE Region USAV Juniors competition. Some teams play outside New England. We have competitive tryouts and train the teams once/week (sometimes twice) from January through April/May. Our Sunday practices are 4-5 hours and this may include mandatory physical training. Our 16's and 18's teams have regularly been amongst New England's strongest, and have won many NE Championships. - Click here for some of our 2008 results - Click here for some of our 2007 results - Last season (2008) SMASH 18's and SMASH 16's were New England Champions! In 18's, we had 2 teams in the top 5! Every senior is playing in college. In 2007 SMASH was the top Massachusetts team, 2nd in NE; both SMASH 16's and SMASH 18's were Silver Medalists in the New England Regional Championships.

Athletes train and compete in their age groups . Players are selected on the basis of performance at the competitive tryouts. Teams train on Sundays, some on additional days. Competition ranges from the local, eastern Massachusetts area, to the New England, East Coast, and some years, national arena. Details of cost and schedule vary according to the exact team's schedule of practice and competition. In 2008-2009 we expect the per/player cost to range from approximately $600 for 12+Unders to $2000-$6000 for strongest 16's and 18's. (Nationally this amount is often $5000- $10,000!)

SMASH treats all players as serious athletes, and expects committment, respect, effort, reliability, and adherence to all policies. We take our tryout process seriously, and feel every player selected should benefit from competition. Therefore all players receive regular playing time. We have no "bench" players.

“Open Level”- Teams must qualify for this classification. The Open Level is divided into Gold - Silver - Bronze - (and sometimes Copper.) The Open tournaments have a paid officials and entry fees.
