Tryouts: August 2nd and 3rd. AM and PM session each day.
Q: Is there a camp I can go to before tryouts?
A: Yes. This camp isn't mandatory, but highly encouraged.
Camp for 10th-12th: July 26-28 6-9PM
Camp for 8th and 9th graders: July 26-28 9am-12pm
Q: Do I need to sign up for tryouts?
A: Yes. We need to know who is trying out ahead of time because our Athletic Trainers have to clear each athlete before they are allowed to tryout. We will send out a form as we approach tryouts.
Q: What do I need to turn in before I am allowed to tryout?
A: Our Athletic Trainers have to clear each athlete before they are allowed to tryout. In order to be cleared, each athlete has to turn in all the medical forms listed in the "Medical Forms" tab to the left. If you have any questions, please let us know.
Q: How many teams are there?
A: This 2021 season we will have four teams. Varsity (all grades), JV (all grades), Flex (Freshman/Sophomore only), Freshman (Freshman only). This alignment was voted on by all the coaches in our district and passed unanimously for the 2020-2022 seasons.
Q: Does everyone make a team?
A: Unfortunately, we only have a limited number of spots per team. We try to keep around 12-15 per team depending on the level of players, which means we will have to make cuts.
Q: How are tryouts run?
A: You will need to go to all days and sessions of tryouts (Aug. 2-3rd AM and PM). Coaches will have everyone warm up, then explain each drill. Coaches will walk around with a clipboard taking notes. There will be little instruction on form, as coaches are to observe what skills you currently have and make decisions off of that.
Q: Do I need to go to all sessions of tryouts?
A: Tryouts will be two sessions for two days (4 sessions total) and be broken into Freshman/Flex and a JV/V tryouts. If you are a freshman, please plan on going to all Freshman/Flex tryout sessions. Select freshman might be asked to switch to the JV/V session based on what our coaches observe. Some sophomores might be asked to go to the Flex tryout. Coach Woods will talk with players she wants to go to a different session. This could change over the course of the 4 sessions.
