Club/Travel Tryouts - 2025-2026 Season - Notes
 

If you are unable to make a tryout....please shoot us an email and we will setup an alternate time/date.  Xtremevbacademy@gmail.com

Please review the Team Descriptions prior to registering for tryouts. We do ask that you attend as many tryouts/clinics as you can so that our Coaches have a chance to evaluate you, your skills and place you accordingly.

​

Players looking to play on a USA National or National are encouraged to attend ALL tryouts/id+ clinics. These teams will begin their practice in September/October (though not mandatory as we understand many players will be playing in school).

​

Age Divisions

​

• The junior age definition for each age group was adjusted to a start date of July 1 (the date had previously been September 1).

• A national waiver was added allowing girls 18s in their junior year of high school to compete on girls 17s teams. This was previously communicated as a regional waiver, but further review of the motion and discussion by the RVAA and JA Chairs lead USA Volleyball to institute this waiver nationally (it will automatically be allowed on rosters in the member management system).

• Regional grade waivers will again be allowed for 14s boys in the seventh grade to play at the BJNC on a 13s team and for 13s boys in the sixth grade to play at the BJNC on a 12s team. This is the second season of this experimental waiver. Documentation of these waivers must still be submitted to the national office by the region to be allowed onto rosters for nationally sanctioned events. This waiver will not be automatically applied in the member management system without region approval.

​

​

Simply put:  Whatever age you will be as of 7/1/2026 is the age group you will register for and play in.
