Roots 2022-23 Tryout Information:

All tryouts for the 2022-2023 season will take place at the Treehouse Gym located at 15407 Long Vista Drive, Suite 100, Austin, TX 78728. We will hold practices north at The Treehouse Gym and south at Hill Country Indoor (HCI) located at 13875 Bee Cave Parkway, Bee Cave, TX 78738. Players are required to attend both days of tryouts (one day for 11U-13U players). 

Players should wear athletic gear (i.e. t-shirt, spandex, tennis shoes, and kneepads) and plan to arrive 15-30 minutes early on the first day of tryouts to check-in and receive a t-shirt and tryout number. Tryout format will consist of testing (approach touch, block touch, shuttle, etc.), position specific skill testing, overall skill testing, and team competition evaluation. All players will be evaluated on all skills. Players will receive an email notification of their team placement following the last day of tryouts. Players/families will have 24 hours after receiving the team invitation to sign-up for the 2022-2023 club season. 

Players/parents will have the option to request a location preference ("north" or "south") in the tryout registration. You may also choose - "either/best fit" to have your player placed on the highest team to meet her needs/skill level at either location. We will have practice days and times available both north (Treehouse Gym) and south (HCI). Our 13U-18U top teams (Under Armour) may have split practices based on the overall make-up of the team. 

Practices will be held at The Treehouse for north teams and practice times will range from 5:00pm-10:00pm Monday through Friday and 10:00am-6:00pm on Sundays. Practices will be held at Hill Country Indoor (HCI) for south teams and practice times range from 5:00pm-10:00pm Mondays through Thursdays. Players will have additional opportunities for position clinic training, jump training, and SAQ training. 

Each team will have 8-10 tournaments (5 tournaments for local teams) throughout the season. 14U-18U national teams will have (at least) one out-of-state tournament and attend the USAV or AAU Junior National Tournament. 13U national teams will attend the USAV or AAU Junior National Tournament. Players will receive 2 practice shirts, 2 jerseys (1 for local teams), 1 sweatshirt, 2 pairs of spandex, 2 pairs of socks, 1 back pack, and 1 bag tag. All players also have access to our Recruiting Coordinators and online recruiting program.

We work to create the same team and season structure each season, but this description and the team list is subject to change each season. Please contact Heather Anderson at heather@rootsvb.org with any additional tryout questions.
