How do I know if my daughter has been pre-registered?

Once your daughter has been registered you will receive an email from the Club Director letting you know that we have all completed paperwork and we will include the tryout date and time we are expecting your daughter to tryout. If something were wrong this would be the time we can correct it.

An example of something being wrong is that your daughter is 15 (turning 16 soon) and wants to tryout at the 17 & Under team but we have her down for the 16 & Under tryout. This just gives us a chance to confirm everything after the fun and hectic parents meeting!

We will start sending email confirmations out around October 24th (or when we receive them). If you do not get one by October 25th (if you have completed everything by then: the payment, paperwork and filled out the online form) do not hesitate to email cincyeastvolleyball@yahoo.com or call me @ 513-256-7223.

What does my daughter need to bring to tryouts?

First she needs to come relaxed. Yes it can be nerve racking, but a nervous girl plays like a nervous girl!

Second BRING your volleyball shoes (do not wear them in), a water bottle, knee pads (if you use them), shorts or spandex (whichever they feel more comfortable in) and a towel (please NO skirts, jeans, dresses, etc). We give the girls a T-Shirt to tryout in with a # on it so we can identify with them. Show up early because that time is a start of tryouts, not the registration.

The last thing your daughter should bring is a will/can do attitude!

Can I watch my daughter tryout?

You can absolutely sit in the parent area (designated area) and watch your daughter tryout. Just understand that if the Coaches and/or Club Director feel that you are doing more harm than good, we will ask you to remove yourself. Also take into consideration your daughter, they may or may not want you present. The key is to have them as relaxed as possible so they can show what they have in the short amount of time we have with them!  

After tryouts how do I know if my daughter makes a team?

After the tryouts have been completed the Club Director will send you a personal email. Those players that make the team have the following dates (Acceptance Deadline) to decide if they want to play for our club.

Tryout Dates Between:                        Acceptance Deadline

10s-14s - October 28-Nov 6, 2011           November 9th, 2011
10s-14s - November 7-20, 2011               November 23rd, 2011
15s-18s - November 13-20, 2011             November 23rd, 2011
15s-18s - November 21-Dec 4, 2011         December 8th, 2011
15s-18s - December 5-18, 2011               December 21st, 2011

Confirmation of the spot on the team is an email accepting the spot, signed Memorandum of Understanding and receiving the payment of $300.00.

How many girls make a team?

After tryouts we invite 9 girls and have a minimum of 3 alternates. We try keep 9 players per team unless the coach request less or more.

Younger ages traditionally can have 10 players per team but no more than 10. The older ages have requested 8 players in years past. We do not guarantee number of players per team, but the fewer players per team the higher the team costs. We try to keep a good number based on ability, interest and coaches preference. We do not carry more than 10 girls per team.

What happens if my daughter does not make it to a Team the first round?

As difficult a decision it is to form teams, unfortunately ever year a few girls are not placed right away. We would ask you to understand that with all of the variables involved, your daughter still may make a team before the January practices. Keep in mind that we invite players to play, they do not always accept.

The deadline for acceptance is set based on when tryouts happen. If we have additonal spots on a team, we make additional offers. Those individuals have 48 hours to make accept a position in our club.

What if club is not what we are looking for?

We are sorry to hear that, but we understand that club is not what everyone is looking for. It is however the best way for your daughter to get the most touches both instructionally and competitively in Cincinnati. After we have had our Club Meet the Team's Meeting (around Mid-December) check back on our website for more information. This season our club will have Training Team Practices (if practice space is available), as well as offer clinics during the season. Space will be limited and on a first come first serve basis once posted. Keep checking the website for more information.
