NTR 2020 Tryout Policy Update (from the region page)

North Texas Region Members,

Two separate surveys were sent out to help establish what needed to change in the current tryout policy. The number one request was the need for a break after nationals and time for vacation.
Based on that the Junior Board has approved the following change to our July 2020 Tryouts.

The Evaluation Window for the upcoming USA Volleyball season shall start on the first Saturday after the last day of the competition for all age groups at USA Volleyball Girls Junior National Championships. For all USA Volleyball age groups, the acceptance date shall be no sooner than the third Sunday of July.

– GJNC ends July 4th, 2020
– Evaluation Window starts July 11th, 2020 (Clubs may make verbal offers to non-current club members (recruits). No binding offers may be made to any recruit or current athlete.)
– Acceptance Date for all age groups is July 19th, 2020 (Clubs may make binding offers)

Previously, the Evaluation Window started the day after Nationals providing little to no time for rest depending on wave schedule at Nationals. This new policy moved the Evaluation Window from immediately the day after Nationals. The result will allow the players and parents an opportunity to take a break or vacation if they so choose. Clubs may still hold approved camps and clinics during this week as they have in May and June and the recruit restrictions still apply.

Previously, the Acceptance Window was divided by age groups into 2 separate weekends limiting time to possibly rest or schedule vacation for much of July. This new policy moves the Acceptance Date for all age groups to the same date. The result will be 2 full weeks of July after the Acceptance Date to allow scheduled vacations or rest before school volleyball begins should the player and parents choose to.

Thank you to everyone that completed the survey and provided feedback.
