FOXFIRE VOLLEYBALL CLUB: Tryouts

Tryouts
We will have two dates for each team to tryout.  The tryout fee covers both days, you do not have to be at both dates but it will help your chances and give the coaches a second chance to see your skills.

Please be sure to read this to help you make sure attend the correct try-out session.  A player's date of birth-NOT the player's year in school will be the primary determining factor in the age group classifications.

17 and under:  Players who were born on or after September 1st, 1992
16 and under:  Players who were born on or after September 1st, 1993
15 and under:  Players who were born on or after September 1st, 1994
14 and under:  Players who were born on or after September 1st, 1995
13 and under:  Players who were born on or after September 1st, 1996

 

Please Bring the following to tryouts:
1. 2010 Badger Region Membership Form
---please make sure the front and back of form are signed by a parent
2. 2010  USA Medical Form
--check to see all parent's signatures are on the form
****Both of the forms can be found at the Badger Region Volleyball Website
     www.badgerregionvolleyball.org
3. $25.00 tryout fee--checks can be made out to "FoxFire VBC"

Players who have been selected by the coaches to be on the team will be notified by telephone-with the player making a commitment by Tuesday, Nov. 24th—we hope to have our teams finalized by Wed. Nov. 25th.  Please do not contact us about whether your daughter has made the team—it sometimes takes the coaches longer to finalize everything.

If your daughter commits to this club we will be having a mandatory meeting on Sunday, Nov. 29th at 6:00 pm at Waterford High School to finalize all uniforms, numbers, practice times and tournament dates for the teams.  A parent/guardian with the player must attend this meeting.

If you decide to play for FoxFire VBC—we expect the following from our FoxFire players:
 
*Have Fun, work hard 110% of the time, enjoy to play the game of volleyball
*Be your best athletically and academically as a part of the FoxFire VBC.
