Thank you for your interest in joining NorCal Volleyball Club. We offer two tryout opportunities each season: Fall (main) tryouts and Summer (supplemental) tryouts. Every player must register in order to try out for a team. Prior to each tryout, we will hold a series of Pre-Tryout Evaluation Clinics. You may also register for eval clinics individually. These are a great opportunity to meet our coaches, get early evaluations, and get the rust off before officially trying out.
These are our main tryouts with which we build our rosters for the entire season, and is the only time of the year when we create new teams and expand our program. Each team will aim to fill all of its available spots during this time. Every player who commits in the Fall is expected to return in the Summer for the second half of our season. Fall season practices begin immediately after tryouts in August and conclude in January for all 15s – 18s players. 14s and under teams will have the opportunity to participate in additional training and open gyms up until Summer Season. Please arrive 30 minutes early to check-in, and have a parent attend the mandatory parents’ meeting during the beginning of tryouts. If you cannot attend our tryouts but still want to be evaluated to make a team, please register for tryouts and email us in advance.
If you have questions on what age group your athlete belongs to, please visit our FAQ page here.

Our evaluation clinics are open to everyone, whether you plan on playing for NorCal or not. Only online registration for open gyms/evaluation clinics will be accepted.
If you played club last season, please locate your 2025-2026 AAU membership number as you will need to have that handy for our registration. These membership numbers are valid until 8/31/26
If you do not have an AAU membership number because you did not play club at NorCal and did not play in AAU events last year with another club, you will need to purchase a 2026-2027 Membership here.
Register for NorCal Volleyball Club’s Tryout. Our tryout fee is $120 (which includes all pre-tryout eval clinics) or $60 for the tryout ONLY.
