So Whats Happening?

So up till now I haven't explained very well everything that is going on. So I'll do it now. From what I have understood there are many divisions of volleyball. For Belgium I believe there are 4. The team that is working out the details on signing me (called Zoersel) is a division 2 team that sometimes plays the division 1 teams. All teams can compete for the Belgium cup, but it is very unlikely that we will win. If we do well, we will lose in the quarters to the team that will probably win it. After winning it that team will go on to play in the Euro Cup Champions league. That Belgium team usually does well in the Euro Cup which encompasses all of Europe's best teams.
So that is the divisions. The winners of divisions 2,3,4 and so on get to move up to the division higher. So the goal is to come in first. For us that means winning our league, and then playing a challenge match against the other 1st team from the other division 2 league.
Every team is broken down into three other categories based on how much money they have to play around with. You have professional, semi-professional and amateur. Professional clubs are usually Div 1 and pay a lot of money for their players. Amateur teams usually don't have a lot of money and so they don't pay their players a lot. Zoersel (the team looking at signing me) is an Amateur team. The difference in amount of money a team has is usually based on sponsorships or endorsements.

Currently Zoersel likes both Scott and Me and wants us both to play. We are working out things like transportation (they want to get us a car to use through the year), a room (which will probably be a house with common kitchen, bathroom and so on), and how much we'll be making. Both of us are looking into doing School and/or work while we are here. The team practices tues, wed, and friday. They play on Sunday nights. Season goes until the last week of April.

I hope this updates you enough. If you have any questions leave a comment and I'll answer.
Saturday we play in a tourney with the team.

Here's some cool reading material.
