Whiteout Volleyball 2025–26 Tryouts

At Whiteout, we believe every athlete deserves a fair and thoughtful team placement process. Tryouts are an exciting opportunity for athletes to showcase their skills and join a team where they can grow, compete, and thrive. Please read the information below carefully so you’re ready for the season ahead.

What to Expect at Tryouts

Trying out for Whiteout is about more than just making a team—it’s about discovering your potential, meeting new friends, and stepping into a supportive volleyball community. Whether you’ve played for years or are brand new to the sport, we encourage every girl to come give it a try.

Here’s what you can expect when you walk through the doors:

  • A welcoming environment – Coaches and staff will be ready to greet you, answer questions, and help you feel at home.

  • Skill assessments – We’ll run a variety of drills and activities designed to see your effort, hustle, and coachability—not just your volleyball experience.

  • Teamwork focus – Volleyball is a team sport, so we look at how athletes encourage each other, communicate, and contribute on and off the court.

  • Fair placements – Our placement process is thoughtful and transparent. Most athletes are placed on a team where they can learn and grow.

No matter your starting point, we want you to leave tryouts proud of your effort and excited about the opportunities ahead.

A note to parents: Thank you for supporting your athletes through this process. We’ll communicate team placements within a few days of tryouts, and if your child isn’t placed, we’ll provide guidance on next steps and future opportunities.
