What to expect at Tryouts

Athletes should be prepared for tryouts to last approximately 1.5 to 2 hours.  Each athlete will be assigned a number at their tryout.  The athletes will work through individual serving, passing, hitting, and setting drills.  They will also work and be evaluated through team play.  

 

Parents are responsible for making sure that their athlete is checked in, paperwork is completed and tryout fees are paid.  The tryout facility does not have a viewing area. Parents can drop off their children.  If you plan on waiting for your child it must be outside the facility. 

​​​Tryouts for the 2024-2025 season will be held at St Bart's Gym at 4941 W. Patterson Ave, Chicago.

​​

The tryout fee is $25 payable by cash, check, or Zelle/Quickpay by the day of tryouts.  (Checks payable to Northside Out Chicago VBC, Zelle/Quick Pay id of northsideoutchicagovbc@gmail.com.)  

  • Tryouts will last approximately 1.5 to 2 hours.  
  • Please arrive at least 15-20 minutes to ensure the athlete is registered and the waiver is complete.
