2026-27 GIRLS Club Tryout and Open Gym General Information

Earn your place at CHAVC

CHAVC tryouts are designed to evaluate athletes, identify the right training environment, and build teams that reflect the standard of our club.

Athletes will be evaluated on skill, athleticism, effort, competitiveness, communication, coachability, and overall readiness for the CHAVC training environment.

Pre-Tryout Open Gyms

CHAVC will host Pre-Tryout Open Gyms in the weeks leading up to tryouts.

Open Gyms give athletes the opportunity to train, compete, and work with CHAVC coaches before official evaluations begin. They also allow our staff to get a better understanding of each athlete in a competitive training environment.

Athletes interested in playing for CHAVC are strongly encouraged to attend as many Open Gyms as possible.

Tryout Attendance

Athletes who want to be considered for a CHAVC team should plan to attend both tryout sessions for their age group.

If an athlete has a conflict, please contact CHAVC before tryouts.

What to Expect

Tryouts will include volleyball skill work, positional training, athletic movement, competitive drills, and game-like play.

Our staff evaluates more than current ability. We look for athletes who compete, communicate, respond to coaching, and show the potential to grow within our program.

Financial Aid

CHAVC offers a small number of need-based grants to offset the cost of participation on travel teams. Please see our Financial Aid page for information and an application link.

Team Placement

CHAVC offers multiple levels of training and competition so athletes can be placed in the environment that best fits their development.

Placement decisions are based on tryout performance, age group, roster needs, commitment level, positional needs, and overall fit.

Before You Arrive

All athletes must complete online registration before attending tryouts.

Athletes should arrive early and bring volleyball shoes, knee pads, water, and any required registration materials.

After Tryouts

Families will receive communication after evaluations are complete with next steps regarding team placement, season details, registration, and required commitments.
