All athletes MUST attend BOTH listed tryout dates at each desired level.
Failing to do so will affect the NFVB Selection Committee's ability to properly evaluate a player's volleyball skills.

Tryout Fee: There is a one time tryout fee for the season of $40.
If you attend tryouts at any given level and don't make one of those teams, players can come back to any following set of tryout dates to seek placement on other teams.

• You must attend all tryouts to be considered for a Niagara Frontier Volleyball girls or boys team.
• Parents are not allowed in the building during the tryout sessions.  You may enter to assist with registration. 
• Information on practices times can be found HERE

Tryouts for any players in 6th grade or younger will now be facilitated by the TCP Academy. Info on those programs can be found at The Champion Project Academy

Please note that The Champion Project Academy offers two levels of participation.

1. Travel Teams - players must register and attend tryouts to make one of these teams. Click HERE for a description and to register.
2. House Teams - players do not need to attend tryouts but do need to register.  Space is limited so spots are available until filled.  Registration for House programs opens in mid November.

Navy, red, white, gold, and silver team practices start on November 27, 2023.

Local team practices (North, South, East) start on January 5, 2024.

*Team practice schedules are posted on the website HERE

In order to complete the two steps below, there will be two separate fee payments that need to be made.

$40 is the club registration fee to get your players name in our system and to cover costs incurred for tryouts.

The $15 Tryout Membership fee covers players for insurance during the tryout period. If the player makes a team, the club pays an additional $54 to get them a full membership for the rest of the season.

Purchase a Tryout Membership - You cannot purchase this until July 1 - We will send a reminder email!

Players that were members last season were covered until their membership expired at the end of August.

To register for tryouts, please complete BOTH steps 1 and 2

Niagara Frontier feels that participating at your grade level allows more of our players to participate on teams with their peer groups. This also places players on teams with similar "years" of experience and maturity levels.

All players must tryout at their academic GRADE LEVEL for the current academic year (2023-2024). The staff will notify any players who fall into an alternate (older) division based on USA Volleyball restrictions.  

The club directors may allow individuals to attend an alternate age group at the second tryout as per the club's "Play-Up" policy in the Club Handbook. This policy also governs players who may need to tryout at a grade level below due to their USAV age. Please notify Coach Rocco or Coach Dan prior to Tryouts if you feel you should be placed on a team "older" or "younger" than your current grade level for any reason (date of birth or skill level). If you attend the wrong tryout, you risk not getting the fairest evaluation at tryouts.
