TRYOUTS  

Tryouts are MANDATORY. In order to give the coaches time to evaluate every athlete and give athletes the best opportunity to showcase their talent, after the first day of tryouts those athletes who wish to play on the JV Team or skills are best matched on the JV team will be placed on the JV team. Athletes who are placed on the JV team after the first day are not required to come to tryouts on Wednesday.

Varsity Requirements

Unlike 7th grade volleyball, the 8th grade Varsity team does NOT have equal playing time for athletes. This is a discussion that should take place between athletes and their guardian. Some athletes will play more than others, and all athletes who are interested on playing on the varsity team should be aware that their playing time will not be equal. All athletes will play in at least 1 game per match (8th grade varsity plays best 2 out of 3). The only exception to this rule is during City Championship Tournament. 

 If your athlete would like to have equal playing time, then they should play on the JV Team. The JV team requires equal playing time for all athletes and plays 3 sets to 25 points. If your athlete is interested in only playing on the JV team, they will not be required to attend tryouts on Wednesday August 10th.
