Parent Meeting 
There will be a parent meeting during the last 15 minutes of each of the scheduled tryout blocks.  At this meeting we will discuss the season,  expectations, and answer questions. 

Understanding acceptance to a team
After tryouts are complete the coaches will send an email to all participants identifying the assigned number of the athletes that made the team.  The email will also identify the next steps in the athlete committing to the team.  Emails will be sent on the evening of the Tryout date. 

What to expect at Tryouts

Athletes should be prepared for tryouts to last approximately 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 or decide to wait in the parks general meeting room during the tryout. 

Upon acceptance to the team you must return to the USAV site where you registered and select ‘Northside Out Chicago VBC’ as your affiliated team.
