Tryout Format:
Day 1: The first day of tryouts will be an objective skills evaluation consisting of 10 different drills designed to measure all of the tangible qualities of a basketball player. Each player will have their numerical performance recorded. The rest of the time will be used for scrimmaging.
Day 2: The second day will focus on placing players into more "real-game" situations. This will include full court fast break drills, half court offensive and defensive drills, 5 on 5..etc. We will also begin assessing the intangible qualities of each player such as hustle, awareness, response to pressure, and coach-ability. The 1st bulk cut will come after Day 2.
*After Day 2 we will make the first cut. The cut list will be posted by the start of the school the day following the 2nd tryout.
Day 3: The third and final day will consist of scrimmages to narrow down the final cut for the basketball team.
On the final day of tryouts we will examine match-ups and positional needs in order to form a balanced and well-rounded team.
7th and 8th Grade Final rosters will be posted by the end of day on Friday Oct 31st.
Players who make the Basketball team will need to get a schedule change into the Athletics period. 7th grade will begin practice at 7:30am and practice during 1st period Athletics, 8th grade will practice during 8th period Athletics and end at 5pm.
