Tom Pingel - USA Volleyball Quote from Tom Pingel, USA Volleyball

"This is the 12th year that USA Volleyball has recognized a trip of this nature organized and managed by Bring It Promotions (BIP). The experience gained by the athletes and coaches simply can not be obtained through domestic play. The USAV/BIP partnership has worked well in that USA recommends coaches and athletes for invitation and Bring It provides post-trip reports on everyone on the trip. I'm confident that the 2011 experience will equal or surpass those of past years."
