  • If you cannot attend the summer tryouts and plan to attend the fall tryouts only, it is highly recommended that you register before the summer tryout date. This allows the coaches to know who plans to attend the fall tryouts. Please indicate on the questionnaire during registration: "I will attend fall tryouts only."
  • We have added a summer tryout make-up date for Monday, August 5 (6:30-8:30pm). This make-up date is only for those who cannot attend their designated age group tryouts or the age group one above or below. Example: If Suzie is an 8th grader, she should attend the 14U tryouts. If she cannot attend the 13U, 14U, or 15U tryouts, then Suzie should attend the summer make-up date on Monday, August 5. If not, we will see Suzie in the fall.

No. Tryouts at Select are designed to be fun and exciting, but we also acknowledge the tryout process can make some athletes a bit nervous. Our tryout process is closed and designed to demonstrate the culture and environment where growth thrives every day. We respect the privacy of the athlete and their family. This allows players to be comfortable in our gym, to take risks with their play, and to challenge themselves, free from the worries about posts on social media.

We want to continue to offer the best experience for our athletes and families in our club.

With an earlier tryout, this allows us to plan ahead in the off-season. We are able to:

  • determine a competitive tournament schedule
  • reserve hotel blocks
  • uniform projections and ordering process

If you registered for summer tryouts, you will automatically be added to our fall tryouts registration list. You do NOT need to register for them separately.

YES! All clubs require a USAV membership for tryouts and to participate during the club season.  

For new USAV members, there are several options for memberships. Choose what is best for your needs. There is a $15 tryout option that is good for tryouts. If you make a club team, you can upgrade to a full membership.    http://www.iavbreg.org/membership

  • If your age definition is telling you to play in a grade younger than what you are in, we (at Iowa Select) encourage you to tryout with your GRADE. If we can not place/offer you on a team in your grade, we will then look at an offer/selection in your age group (EX: Susie is an 8th grader but club age says that she is a 13u, which is typically a 7th grade age group, Susie should attend the 8th grade (14u) tryout first since that is what grade she will enter in this fall.
  • USA Volleyball's age definitions

For those high school athletes that will still be in-season still, you will need to attend after your high school season is completed.

There are no spectators allowed in the gym during any tryouts.

Both tryouts help field our girls teams that compete during the same club season calendar. We run summer tryouts so we can get an early evaluation of the players who are interested in playing on our Mizuno or Black level teams. That same info allows us to continue evaluating players while they are in their school seasons so that we can have the best evaluations possible going into the next year. We also can get a head start on all of the logistics that come with that (practice times, season schedules, hotels, uniform ordering, etc). Regardless of when you receive an offer (summer or fall) you will start your training and season for the 2024-25  calendar year in December.

Club Team Commitment Level:

  • Practice –2x per week
  • Intense travel schedule
  • 14-17 Mizuno Teams Season:  December - June/July*
