2024-2025 Power League Tryouts

NorCal will offer the following 11-18s age groups during the 2024-2025 season:

11-1 Black, 12-1 Black, 12-2 Blue, 13-1 Black, 13-2 Blue, 14-1 Black, 14-2 Blue, 14-3 White, 15-1 Black, 15-2 Blue, 16-1 Black, 16-2 Blue, 17-1 Black, 17-2 Blue, 18-1 Black, and 18-2 Blue

Please see the steps to take below in order to successfully register for tryouts.

Note that there are two options with our tryout fees:

Tryout Dates, Time, & Locations

Registration for each Age Group tryout will start 45 minutes prior to the tryout time.

Club Director, Meg Herr, will have a mandatory parent meeting (at least 1 parent from each athlete should attend) around 15 minutes after the start of each group’s tryout. She will be going over information about the 2025 club season including anticipated schedules, costs, etc

Every player should attend tryouts in their own age group. This is the best way to ensure a fair and accurate evaluation. Our team selection occurs immediately after the tryout, so it puts your athlete at a disadvantage if they are not at their specific age group for tryouts. If for some reason, your player can not attend their age group tryout, you must send an email to Club Director Meg Herr at meg@norcalvbc.com so she can discuss the options for you.

Registration

Step 1:

If you played club last season, please locate your 2023-2024 USAV/NCVA membership number as you will need to have that handy for our registration. These membership numbers are valid until 8/31/24

If you do not have a USAV/NCVA membership number because you did not play club at NorCal and did not play in USAV/NCVA events last year with another club, you will need to purchase a 2024-2025 tryout pass here.

These will be available for purchase on the NCVA website in early July.

Step 2:

Register for NorCal Volleyball Club’s Tryout. Our tryout fee is $100 (which includes all pre-tryout eval clinics) or $60 for the tryout ONLY.

What teams do you offer at NorCal?

For the 2025 season we will offer:

  • WCVBA/USAV League Teams: 11-1 Black, 12-1 Black, 12-2 Blue, 13-1 Black, 13-2 Blue, 14-1 Black, 14-2 Blue, 14-3 White, 15-1 Black, 15-2 Blue, 16-1 Black, 16-2 Blue, 17-1 Black, 17-2 Blue, 18-1 Black, and 18-2 Blue
  • WCVBA Area League: We will not offer any area league teams in 2025
  • WCVBA Juniors Teams: Around 4-6 Juniors teams (non competitive teams ages 12 and under) although the actual number of teams depends on the interest of sign ups. These teams do not have a tryout. They will be grouped by grade so that we have at the least 3, 3/4th grade teams and 1, 5/6th grade team.

What is the difference between your Black, Blue and White team?

The Black team is our top travel team, also known as our 1s team. The Blue team is our second travel team, also know as our 2s team. The White teams are our 3s team.

Do you offer area league teams?

No. This season we will not be offering Area League teams.

Do you offer a younger girls program?

Yes, we offer a 12 and under program at NorCal called NorCal Juniors. This program is a sign up to play program and there is no tryout. We will offer around 4-6 teams in this age group and registration will not begin until after the 11-14s Power League Tryouts.

Do you offer spots prior to tryouts?

Yes, we are going to offer spots prior to tryouts. All players must come to tryouts whether they have been offered a spot or not.

There will be spots open in every age group at NorCal when tryouts come. If coaches are choosing to offer spots prior to tryouts, they are also agreeing to have conversations with families about where they stand in those offers and who has already been offered a spot.

We want this to remain a completely transparent process and help with the tryout process, not hinder it. Clear communication between families and coaches will make this a smooth and transparent process and not a secretive or destructive one. Please help us in making the fourth year of offering spots prior to tryouts a smooth and healthy process.
