UNDERSTANDING THE TRYOUT PROCESS

 

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

TRYOUTS AND TEAM LOCATIONS

 

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. 

***FOR OUR NOVEMBER MAKE-UP TRYOUTS, YOU MAY CHOOSE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR BOTH LOCATIONS since the tryout is at the same time.  


NW Juniors Tryout Registration: Girls indoor; a one-time $30 tryout fee is required to tryout for NW Juniors Elite 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 [Exception is U12's - both locations tryout at the same time and location]. Do NOT register multiple times  If you do not get an offer at our initial tryout, then you may come to our make-up tryout.  You do not need to register again, just show up with your same assigned tryout number.  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.
