THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE TRYOUTS

Arcola Volleyball is about having fun while learning the sport and how to be on a team!

Our teams consist of about 12 players for each grade. We average about 35 students for tryouts each season.

Attendance Policy: Players may not miss more than 3 practices/games. We only have 18 practices and 16 games; missing days during the season impacts progress and learning.

Students may only participate in one Arcola sport per season.

In 7th grade, everyone plays, almost equally.

In 8th grade, playing time is based on performance and practices.

Eligibility: Players failing 2 classes or more are ineligible for sports participation.

Per PIAA rules...players must arrive to school by 10:30am to participate in any practice/game.
