Volleyball High School Tryout Information

Hello, it’s time to play some volleyball! I’m filled with excitement for this upcoming season. I’m confident that your hard work, effort, and determination will have a strong impact on the volleyball program. Volleyball season will soon be here and this letter contains important information in regards to tryouts, practices, apparel orders, and more.

Official practice/tryouts will begin on August 2nd at 7:30 am. (DON’T BE LATE) It’s important that on August 2nd you arrive on time so that we can verify that all of your athletic paperwork is turned in. August 2nd-4th practice will go from 8 AM-11 AM. Next, you will have a break from 11 AM-1 PM. You may bring your lunch and eat in the gym. Then, you will have practice again from 1 PM-3 PM. Teams will be announced on August 4th at 11 AM after the first practice session. We will have a MANDATORY parent meeting on August 5th at 6:30 PM. Please be flexible and understanding as we adjust practice schedules to meet team needs if necessary. Our first scrimmage is August 6th in Rains followed by our second scrimmage on August 7th in Kaufman. Times are to be determined.

You will use the Athletic Supply website to purchase your own workout gear. This will be given to you on May 5th and will end on June 16th. EACH ATHLETE NEEDS TO PURCHASE THE BLACK SPANDEX AND WHITE KNEE PADS. Girls MUST WEAR WHITE VOLLEYBALL SHOES! This site is open for you to purchase other items as well such as shoes, shirts, hats, hoodies, shorts, pants, and etc. You MUST have the Under Armour Spandex and knee pads for this season! Girls will wear their white volleyball shoes of choice. Parents are also welcome to order from this site. All items will be delivered to Coach Loyd and passed out on August 2nd.

 

Please make sure your athlete has their UIL Paperwork, Emergency Contact, and Medical History forms turned in. If they DO NOT have this turned in they will need to turn this in BEFORE the August 2nd Volleyball Tryouts. If your athlete does not have this completed by August 2nd, they will NOT participate in tryouts. Please contact Coach Loyd or the Athletic Trainer Robbie Simonek if you need this paperwork or have any questions.

We will be doing heavy conditioning during the first few weeks of practice. Therefore, it's vital that you put in the hard work and effort before the season to ensure that you’re in the best shape possible. The more work you put forth before the season, the less sore you will become during the season. We will also be lifting weights as part of our practice. I highly support coming to strength and conditioning during the summer!

I’m filled with excitement for this upcoming season. I look forward to seeing dedication and effort on August 2nd. Our motto as the Canton Eaglette Volleyball Program Is #TogetherWeSoar. Volleyball takes each individual player at their best mentally and physically to ensure overall success. Come ready to WORK and grow TOGETHER!!!
If you have any questions please feel free to email me. GO EAGLETTES!!!
