TRYOUTS FAQ
What age group should I tryout for?
WHAT HAPPENS IF I MAKE A TEAM?
Soon after the conclusion of tryouts for your age group, you will receive an email from TLVC with team information and an invitation to accept your spot. You must accept your spot and pay your first installment before the time mentioned in the email or your spot may be given to the next athlete. The amount of time it takes to receive your email may vary based on many factors. We will do our best to send the email in a timely fashion.
Do I have to wait until I am at least 12 years old to tryout?
No, we offer age groups from 11 & under to 18 & under, but athletes can start as young as 9 years old.
What should I bring to tryouts?
Athletes should bring a refillable water bottle and wear appropriate volleyball attire.
ARE PARENTS ALLOWED TO WATCH TRYOUTS?
Parents are welcome to help their athlete check in. We ask that only athletes be inside the building during the tryout process. We understand that this is a stressful time for players and families. We will always try our best to help make this experience enjoyable and educational.
What Do the Team Colors Mean?
Team colors are used only to help distinguish between teams within the same age group—they do not indicate skill level (except for Black). Black is reserved for National-level teams and for the 1st team in an age group if no National team exists. All other colors are assigned alphabetically for organization. Final tournament seeding is based on performance, not color.
