Tryouts this year are held 8/15- 8/19 from 10-4pm @ Minnetonka HS.  All athletes attend all sessions.  You must be fully registered through the activities office to participate - this includes online forms, fees and physical.   Team placements will be made on either 8/18 or 8/19.  Not every athlete that tries out is guaranteed to make a team.  Team placement criteria is as such:

  • Varsity - the best possible team regardless of grade.

  • Sophomore - the best possible team of remaining sophomores
  • 9A - the best possible team of remaining 9th graders
  • 9B - the best possible team of remaining 9th graders

Teams will begin with two-a-day preseason practices on Monday 8/22.  On 8/29 we begin after school hours practice times in the afternoon (even though school is not in).

A Message from the Volleyball Booster Club

A friendly reminder that the volleyball program does not run itself, we need help from all our amazing parents!  Here are a couple of things to keep in mind as part of our volleyball community:

  • Volunteer - All parents will need to complete volunteer duties which will include things like concession duty and committee memberships.  Together we make this a wonderful experience for all our daughters!

  • Fundraising & Donations - The booster club provides equipment, programs, funding for all themed home games, banquet meals for the girls, assistant coaches salary, and many additional things that make this a special program.  To stay financially strong, we engage in annual fundraising and ask each of our parents to make a donation as well.  It costs a minimum of $100/player to cover annual program costs.  If your daughter plays club volleyball you will find this number to be very reasonable compared to your spring club costs.  Your support helps our program thrive!

New in 2022 - Donate to the booster club through Venmo!
