Thank you to those of you who already registered for tryouts. We have about 30 players who have indicated they are coming to tryouts, but are not registered yet. You will be turned away at the door if you are not registered, no exceptions. USAV and MVC will not allow you to participate. Please make sure that if you are planning on coming to tryouts, that you REGISTER for tryouts and have an active USAV membership. This is a USAV Sanctioned event. You will not have time to do this the morning of the tryout. We will not be available to walk you through getting your memberships if you wait until the last minute as we will be very busy preparing and checking in players. We have provided all of the instructions below, and on our website. We have also printed packets and handed on Monday. We will hand out again tonight along with the required forms to bring on tryout morning. Also attached to this email. See below for previously emailed communication.

Please ensure your player comes prepared as this is a much more formal night in which all club coaches will conducting evals and interviews with players. Players are welcome to ask any coach questions about the season and guidance on how to have the best tryout possible!
Ensure your player has a USAV membership before tryouts!

If you did not play club, or are new to club, you will need to follow the instructions to purchase a summer/temporary membership for your son to participate in tryouts and practices. This temporary summer membership is only valid until 9/1/21. If your player makes a club team, you will need to purchase the full year membership again.

Upcoming Evaluation Nights:
Evaluation nights are opportunities for players to be evaluated by our coaching staff prior to club tryouts. These are very important to attend if you plan on coming to tryouts. Players should come to both nights if possible. We only have about 1-2 hours on the morning of tryouts. Evaluation nights allow us to have conversations with your players about what positions they play, experience, attitude, leadership skills, etc. This helps ensure they are placed on the most appropriate team if they come to tryouts. NO contracts or season commitments are allowed to be made during evaluation nights. Coaches will be running drills similar to a tryout and taking notes. Players should come focused and prepared as this is treated more like a formal tryout. This event is CLOSED to parents.
We really need players to come to the appropriate age groups for evaluation nights. For example: Incoming freshman should come to the 15U eval session. This is not an indication of what team they will be on. This is only for our coaches to be able to have adequate time to identify their individual skillsets. Teams will be formed at tryouts based on several factors (Age, Skillset, Positional team needs, etc.). Our club prefers to keep players in their USAV assigned age groups. However, there are circumstances in which MVC reserves the right to roster players where we feel is the best fit based on the above determining factors and team needs. See PDF below for new 2021 age definitions.
