2022-23 CLUB VOLLEYBALL TRYOUTS
TRYOUT SCHEDULE - SUPPLEMENTAL TRYOUTS
TO BE CONSIDERED FOR TOP TEAMS, PLAYERS SHOULD TRYOUT AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.
* Tryouts for both Waco and Belton Regions are held at LSC. Belton Region practices will be held locally in that area once practices begin.
As in conjunction with the USAV code of conduct, for national teams, we will require both athlete and parents to be emotionally mature. Being emotionally mature can be described as when someone can manage their emotions no matter their circumstances, holding themselves in a proper and responsible manner. We expect our athletes to be pushed mentally and physically in order to grow into the best versions of themselves. Furthermore, our national teams schedule is some of the most competitive in the Lone Star Region. We expect our athletes and parents to be able to commit and partake in the schedules they sign up for, including being mentally and physically prepared for a demanding schedule.

Age Classification for the 2022-2023 Season
What if I cannot attend the tryout?
If you are unable to attend tryout day, you can still be considered for a team. You must e-mail Jerry Sorrells prior to tryouts to discuss the options to make up the days.
How many players are placed on a team?
We typically place 9-12 players on a team. Factors that affect this determination include but are not limited to: age group, the level of talent, and the positional needs of a particular team.
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.
What happens if I make a team?
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.
