Is There a Fundraiser to Offset Costs?

Yes! Athletes can join our GAVA Ambassador Program.

They earn $50 per Edg App referral using custom promo codes shared via our clothespin “clip” campaign at tournaments. These funds go directly toward club dues.

Will There Be Makeup Tryouts?

We encourage all athletes to attend the official tryout dates. If unavailable, please contact us directly to discuss a possible makeup evaluation.

When Will Teams Be Announced & Practices Start?

Team announcements: Within 5–7 days after tryouts

Practices begin: November 2025, with tournaments beginning January 2026

Will Everyone Who Tries Out Make a Team?

Our goal is to place as many athletes as possible. However, cuts may be made based on skill level, team size, and competitive balance. Those not placed on a team may be invited to join our training program to continue skill development.

Playing Time

Playing time is earned through attendance, effort, attitude, and execution. Everyone will play but everyone does not play all the time. It’s a coach’s decision as we play to win.
Coaches will not discuss other players’ roles or time. Everyone is not guaranteed equal playing time.
Athletes are encouraged to ask for feedback directly.
