GATE FEES? Really?
Yes, the RMR is instituting an across-the-board Guest Pass requirement this season!
DETAILS
* Guest passes are $10 per person (plus $1.52 service fee) and can only be purchased online at TM2. Online credit card purchases only. No cash purchases at the door.
* Passes will be made available online ahead of each event, so that we don’t suffer long lines “at the door.”
* All passes include “all-venues, all-day, with in-and-out privileges” for a single person
* Passes include both a scannable code, and a photo of the guest!
* Guests 5 and under, as well as active players in uniform and all Coaches and Directors, enter free
* In an attempt to keep it all simple: No discounts, refunds or credits:
“Non Refundable."
DISCUSSION
The “gate fee” concept is being implemented out of necessity…
* We’re losing Gyms!
* Almost half of the facilities that we employed last year say they don’t want to work with us again this year.
* The reasons cited include crowding, poor spectator behavior, long days, low compensation and the TRASH that all those guests leave behind!
* The new Guest Pass Fees will allow us to both hire staff to assist at the facilities, and to offer greater compensation to our hosts.
* The passes should also help us control over-crowding!
* Player safety is paramount!
* Volleyball has become very popular, and with that growth, comes some “less-than-desirable" attention.
* Guest passes will help “keep out” persons who are not associated with a team.
* The passes are specific to individuals. This allows the RMR to control, or track when necessary, who attends each session.
* We’ve worked really hard for years to avoid “charging gate.”
* We “get it." RMR parents are already spending a great deal on club volleyball!
* Please understand though, that the issues discussed above are real, and the timing is critical
* In many ways, we’re “catching up” to the policies utilized by every other Tournament, Region and most public events
* We’re starting small, at $10.
* For this first year, we decided to keep it small.
* We’re charging only $10 per day (plus sec fee) , so that families can choose just how often they want to attend.
* And we’re offering $5 discounts for multi-day events.
All about the new Guest Pass Policy
Here's the letter from our Executive Director that explains a lot about why the RMR (reluctantly) took the step to start charging gate fees at RMR events. Why we did it, and where your monies will go...
Inclement Weather PolicyThe RMR does not dictate whether teams or participants should or should not travel during inclement weather or under any other unsafe condition. Club/Team/Personal travel to any RMR event is always at your own risk and expense. Safety first!
That said, we rarely cancel events. In the event that interstate highways are closed, or if gyms are closed by their school districts or owners, we publish these closures both at the RMR Home Page, and directly to all involved TEAM COACHES, via the TM2 email system.
In the event that a team is running late or cannot attend, it is the responsibility of the Team Coach or Representative to notify the RMR as early as possible. We can be reached by text at our office cell phone 303-584-0376.
Weather-related cancellations may be eligible for refund if highway closure is corroborated by State Highway Patrol. Cancellations for any other reason substantially affect all attending teams, and are therefore not eligible for refund, and may be subject to fines or other club sanction.
