We have teams for all skill levels. If you are 14U and under, we do not make cuts. If not placed on a travel team, you will be offered a spot in our UP program. For our older HS teams cuts are made but we offer lessons if your daughter needs some extra training before tryouts.

Missing practices is not something we encourage.  The teams we make up are kept on the smaller size to guarantee the girls as much playing time as possible.  If you are missing practice once a week it is very hard on the team and coach to effectively run a productive practice. We do understand that there are situation where missing is needed, we just ask that you communicate with your coach ahead of time so they can prepare.   

Missing tournaments is not allowed.  With smaller teams and only a few tournament dates it is very important that you attend all tournaments.

The UP program is a practice team that has (2) 2 hour practices a week and have a few scrimmages with other UP teams.  These teams do not travel to tournaments and are run by NLP volleyball director, Katrina Miller.  There is no tryout for this program, the only thing that is required is registering online.   

If you are trying out for a 14 or younger travel team and we do not see a place for you on one of those teams, we will offer you a spot in the UP program.   

Please reach out to the director of volleyball Katrina Miller and she will help you figure out which replacement tryout to attend so that you can still be considered for a team.
