Your agent will guide you through this process, so you need to trust their advice. They are your liaison for getting the most out of an offer and have your best interest at heart. Trust their experience.
If you get an offer, you agent will contact you, tell you all details and YOU make […]
If you get a job in Europe, you will probably need to set up a bank account with a foreign bank near to where you will be living. This European bank account can be linked to a U.S. bank account at a later date. They work more or less the same way as an […]
General questions for you should revolve around living in the city where the team trains and competes. Other questions can be about the teammates you are playing with, other foreign players on the roster or what else you may be doing for the club besides just playing. Teams have their players coach youth teams […]

Tough question these days. We ran an International Recruiting Service from 2000 to 2003 and helped about 100 girls get scholarships in the USA during that time. We tried our best to run the service in a fair way for all coaches, but with stricter NCAA regulations popping up, the prevalence of information on the […]
We invite you to ask around first. The following is just a short list of the many coaches that have been on previous BIP Team Tours: Joe Sagula (North Carolina), Debbie Brown (Notre Dame), Devin Scruggs (Reno), Brian Gimmillaro (Long Beach State), Andy Banachowski (UCLA), Al Scates (UCLA men), Reed Sunahara (Cincinnati), Russ Rose (Penn […]
We require a deposit (usually $5,000 or $10,000) to secure your desired tour dates. After your down payment has been made and your dates have been locked in, the balance will be due before you depart for your tour. We generally ask for tours to be paid in full 60 days prior to departure. Exact […]
The cost of any University Tour is entirely dependent upon the number of people in your travel party, the number of days you plan on touring, the number of countries you’d like to see, and the time of year you plan to travel. Costs can range from $1200 to $3000+ per person, not including airfare. […]
Yes. Bringing family, boosters, or administrators along is common and of course we will simply include them in the number of your travel party. However, it is imperative that all non-volleyball participants understand up front that volleyball, and the team in particular, is the priority.
You can pre-determine your desired level of competition. If you are a strong team and would like to play against some of the top professional or National Teams, we can arrange for high caliber matches. If you are not a strong team and would rather play mid-level matches, we can also accommodate you. In addition, […]
Just as is the case with accommodations, meals will in large part depend on your budget, as well as the daily schedule of the tour. Sometimes meals have to be fast as we go from sightseeing to a competition or from city to city; other times we can afford to sit down and take our […]
Lodging throughout the tour will depend entirely on your budget. In the past we have used hotels, sport lodges, pensions, hostels, and even gymnasiums themselves. Regardless of the lodging you choose, sometimes the least expensive accommodations turn into the best cultural experiences. In general the quality of the lodging may vary from city to city […]
Yes. We will never run a tour without a member of Bring It Promotions along to ensure that the itinerary is followed and everything is running smoothly.
Your University Tour can be taken anytime throughout the year as long as you are not in school, and as long as you’re back from your tour 30 days before your first practice date of your season. Check with BIP or your compliance advisor if you have any questions about these dates. Otherwise, the timing […]
Customize, of course! We have established relationships with teams throughout Europe, South & Central America, Australia and the South Pacific, Asia and the entire volleyball world, and can arrange matches virtually anywhere you want to go. We have countries that we recommend and are worthwhile from competition, sightseeing, and recruiting standpoints, but you are free […]
First of all, Bring It Promotions is based in Europe and has been since 1997. Because of that, we have a vast network of connections to federations, teams, and service industries. Secondly, BIP deals solely with volleyball. Other tour management companies do not have the same appreciation for the specific needs of volleyball teams and […]
Bring It Promotions handles every aspect of your European tour except, in most cases, airfare. At your specific request we will agree to organize your airfare, but we have found through experience that most schools prefer to arrange their own air transportation. All Bring It Promotions University Tours include: all hotel accommodations, all meals/per diem, […]
Signing up for an Exposure Tour is simple. Please just send an email to Tim Kelly with as much information about yourself as possible. We’ll need to know your height, birth date, position played, experience, and we’d like to know about any direct links to info, bios, or video of you online. You can also […]
Participating on an Exposure Tour team does not, in any way, obligate you to tryout for a professional team nor to accept a professional team’s contract offer. At the very least, the Exposure Tours are guaranteed to be one of the most fun and memorable trips of your life. The Tours are a chance to […]
In the past, Exposure Tour teams have been coached by international coaches and U.S. collegiate coaches, including National Team coaches from Slovenia and Norway, Portugese FIVB instructor, Paulo Cunha, USA National Team assistant coach, Kevin Hambly, and UNLV head coach and former Olympian, Deitre Collins. Cory Solomon, Recruiting Coordinator for Bring It Promotions and former […]
