The Nickel City administrative staff has been closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19 and realize that this unprecedented event is going to keep us from resuming normalcy for quite some time.
With guidelines continually evolving and uncertainty of when activities will resume, Nickel City has decided to cancel the remainder of the 2020 volleyball club season for all teams.
We will be working to issue refunds for all tournaments remaining on our schedule. We hope everyone continues to remain healthy and safe and look forward to when we can come together once again!
