Tryouts for the 2023 volleyball season are only 3 weeks away. Here are the important pieces of information that you need to pay attention to-

• All athletes must be cleared through Family ID prior to tryouts. Be cleared no later than August 20th at 12pm. You must have an updated physical. www.familyid.com
• Tryouts will take place on August 21st, 22nd, 23rd. These are MANDATORY and athletes must attend all sessions in order to be eligible for a team. Because of safety and space, volleyball is a cut sport. Athletes that are not chosen to be a part of a team, are highly encouraged to go out for another sport- soccer, swimming and cross country do not make cuts and will be able to use your tryout days as practice days for their sports.
• Tryouts will be from 2-5pm, and 6-8pm. BOTH sessions are mandatory- we have 2-a-day practices for tryouts. Players should plan on bringing a light dinner to eat during the one hour break.
• Athletes should wear a t-shirt, shorts, gym appropriate shoes and knee pads. Do not buy new shoes for tryouts. It is not a good time to break in new shoes. 
• Bring water! The gym will be warm.
• Practices begin August 24th, 3pm-6pm. All practices are mandatory. Do not plan vacations or other events. These are not excused absences, and as a result, could end in the athletes being released from the program. High school volleyball is a 5-6 day a week commitment. This begins the first day of tryouts.
• There is a team activity night on August 25th, that will end on Saturday morning, August 26th. This is mandatory.
