2023-24 CLUB VOLLEYBALL TRYOUTS
TO BE CONSIDERED FOR TOP TEAMS, PLAYERS SHOULD TRYOUT AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.
In line with the USAV code of conduct for national teams, we will require both athletes and parents to demonstrate emotional maturity. Emotional maturity refers to the ability to regulate one's emotions effectively regardless of the circumstances, exhibiting responsible and appropriate behavior. Our athletes are expected to face rigorous mental and physical challenges in order to reach their full potential. Additionally, our national teams have demanding schedules that are among the most competitive in the Lone Star Region. Thus, we expect our athletes and parents to commit to and participate fully in the schedules they sign up for, including being mentally and physically prepared for the demands of the schedule.

When will I know if I made a team and which one that is?
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 the deposit 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.

Once you are placed on a team, you will receive an email with an invitation to accept your spot. You must complete this registration and pay the non-refundable first payment. The remaining balance is spread out in monthly payments. Once you've accepted a spot on a team, the remaining balance of the dues is non-refundable.

No, we offer age groups from 11 & under to 18 & under, but athletes can start as young as 9 years old.

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 ARE THE FEES FOR THE 2023-24 SEASON?
To cover the costs associated with participation, team dues cover expenses such as uniforms, facility rentals, equipment, education, coaches' compensation, access to our Director of College Recruitment, and administrative fees. Fees do not include: USAV or AAU registration, airfare, hotels, food, any ground transportation to and from practice sessions and out-of-town tournaments, shopping, etc.
Keep in mind that you are signing a contract for a predetermined fee and that payment plans are a courtesy. Contracts are due regardless if the player completes the season. It does not work like a dance class or gymnastics class where you pay for the months that you attend.
