Tryout Information

​JCVC seeks motivated, competitive volleyball players who want to advance their skill and who can capably accommodate a busy schedule.

Only those athletes who demonstrate this commitment will be assigned to a Club team.

All Saskatchewan athletes are welcome to tryout for JCVC teams.

Each age division has a separate tryout time, as indicated in our Tryout Schedule.

Please ensure you register for the appropriate time for your age group.

Tryout Format

In order to fully evaluate all divisions, tryouts will be done in a 2-round format.

The inital tryout is for anyone who has registered for tryouts!

After each tryout, selections will be made to reduce the number of athletes for the subsequent tryout (Call Backs).

Those athletes invited to the next round of tryouts will be notified through the JCVC website when the number they were assigned gets posted on the Call Backs Page

***All Club Season athletes will have a digital photo taken at registration, prior to starting the tryout. These photos will be used by the coaches to properly identify athletes during the selection process, and will NOT be posted on the website. All digital image files will be deleted once the final teams are selected.
