AVA Tryouts


Tryouts will once again be July 8, 9, and 10, with make ups on July 11
Players need to attend their tryout date.  Most positions are offered the night of their tryout.  Make ups are only for spots still available.  Some evaluations can be made early in the camps or privately. However, we highly encourage you to attend your scheduled tryout to give yourself the best team placement.  


AVA Club Evaluation

If you would like to be evaluated to join an AVA Club team for the 2010-2011 Season, check yes below. AVA recommends early attendance in the summer to ensure the best possible evaluation on each player. Tryouts are 2 to 3 hours only and we hope each athlete has her best day, but we know that sometimes we don't get the best measure of your ability in one tryout. Attending tryouts is still highly recommended to ensure the best possible team placement.

AVA trains players from all schools and clubs. We welcome everyone.
