Tryouts are on Monday, December 1st, 2025 in the school gym.

Varsity is at 2:45pm, Junior Varsity(JV) is at 3:45PM and tryouts for the 6th grade team is at 4:45

Tryouts are only an hour long and will be composed of a few skill based drills, followed by a lot of live play.

Player eligibility is as follows: The Varsity team can be composed of 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. The JV team can be compsoed of 6th and 7th graders. The 6th grade team is only available to 6th graders.

Teams are formed according to ability, effort, and overall performance—not grade level. Younger players may “play up” if their skill level allows. However, older players cannot always be placed on a lower team. If a player does not earn a spot on one of the teams they are eligible for, they may not be placed on a roster.

If a player is trying out for multiple teams, they just need to attend the highest level tryout. For example if a seventh grade athlete wants to tryout for both Varsity and JV, they just need to attend the Varsity tryout. The evaluation information will be passed along to both coaches.
