2018 Tryouts

When: August 1, 2, & 3 (times to be announced)

Where: San Marcos High School - Knight Center

Tryouts have no cost. You MUST HAVE YOUR CLEARANCE PACKAGE(Blue Book) & PHYSICALS in order to participate in the tryout.
We will go through a series of physical fitness and skills tests. We will also evaluate character traits. Using the criteria on the tryout card as well as considering academic eligibility and best fit, we will choose our teams. We carry 10-15 on Varsity, Junior Varsity and Novice Teams.  Unfortunately, this usually means we have to cut some very good players

What you need to know:

1.) We will start check-in and registration at (   ) p.m., please arrive no later than  (   ).
2.) Wear normal volleyball attire, NO CLUB VOLLEYBALL AFFILIATED APPAREL ALLOWED!!! We will have some Knights shirts available as a fundraiser. 
3.) Bring plenty of water, Gatorade and snacks. At least one 10 minute break will be issued after our physical testing. 
4.) We are not permitted to make any cuts until Day 2, so be prepared for at least 1 full days of testing with the potential for cuts on day 2.
5.) Every attendee will have an evaluation sheet. I have attached that sheet so you all can see exactly what you will be evaluated on.
6.) We will keep anywhere from the 10-15 players per level. Freshman are eligible for all 3 levels. Sophomores are eligible for JV and Varsity. We have allowed some sophomores on Frosh before, but have been advised to stay away from that as much as possible. Juniors are available for JV and Varsity. Seniors are eligible for Varsity only. There is no guarantee that returning players make a team. We start every season with a clean slate! 
7.) You must be on the cleared list to participate, or bring your clearance package with you, complete with an up to date physical. If you do not have that complete, you will not be allowed to tryout.
