***Information for our U15-U18 Summer Tryouts for 2025/2026 Club season will be posted once gyms are secured. 

(The approved USAV tryout window for Puget Sound Region is July 29-August 24th.)

Typically, NW Juniors' Tryouts are during the first few days the region allows; followed by make-up tryouts within 5-7 days.  

Uniform fittings are usually scheduled on the same date as the summer makeup tryouts. 

We plan to fill ALL of our teams during the summer tryout window. Please keep this in mind if you plan to tryout for NW Juniors.
 

Your age group is determined by how old your player will be on July 1st of 2026.

**The Tryout registration fee is NON-Refundable - no exceptions.  We track registrations and have a limited number of openings for each tryout. If you register for tryouts after they have closed, your registration will be moved to our makeup tryout.

Openings on our teams to be filled at makeup tryouts are typically posted at the top of this page 3-4 days after our initial tryouts. We encourage you to check here before registering for our Make-up Tryouts.

We have extensive information about the tryout process on a separate page. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with NW Juniors Tryout Process for our club season so you understand how it works if your athlete receives an offer. Included on that page: 

• Selection Process
• Signing Process
• After Tryouts

Our Club offers teams in two separate geographic locations: "Eastside" and "Northend". These locations are determined by where the teams practice - not by where the players live. 

Players often times live in close proximity to both locations and must choose which opportunity is the best fit for them. If your drive to the Northend practice gyms is manageable, we encourage you to choose our Northend teams for tryouts, since due to population density there are less players trying out for our Northend teams. 

There are a limited number of openings for tryouts and our tryouts usually fill. As a result, NW Juniors returning athletes will have the first opportunity to register for tryouts. NW Juniors incumbents will receive a personal invitation to register in mid-May. 

Tryout Registration OPENS to athletes from other clubs with 2024-25 CLUB** EXPERIENCE on JUNE 1st.
**Boys and Girls Club is NOT considered club volleyball

Tryout Registration OPENS to athletes without previous season club experience on JULY 1st. We will accept these registrations on a "space available" basis.

Girls indoor Teams: a one-time $30 tryout fee is required in order to tryout for NW Juniors VBC.  Tryout fees are non-refundable. If you are trying out for multiple clubs, you have to pay and register for each club's tryout. The Tryout fee covers ONE AGE GROUP/ONE LOCATION (EA or NE) for our initial tryout.  PLEASE DO NOT REGISTER MULITIPLE TIMES. 

If you do not get an offer at our initial JULY TRYOUT, then you will have the option to attend our JULY make-up tryout.  You do not need to register again, just show up with your same assigned tryout number.  

FOR NOVEMBER MAKE-UP TRYOUTS, if you already registered for our July Tryouts, then you MUST PAY the tryout fee again (STEP C).  Be sure to check team openings beforehand which will be posted to this page 48 hours after the initial tryout.  We accept debit or credit cards; Visa, Mastercard, and American Express.
