Tryout Information

This season, Downstate will be hosting tryouts beginning in late August for high school age athletes, and beginning in late September for 8th grade and younger. Please note that you will always attend tryouts based on the athletes grade for the upcoming school year (the 2021-22 academic year). Also, you should attend the tryouts at the location where your team would practice.

After registering for tryouts, you may attend tryouts at more than one location and you should plan to attend both tryouts scheduled for your age group and location. While attendance at all tryouts in not mandatory, it is highly recommended! We evaluate different skills and situations at each tryout and the more our coaches are able to see these young athletes, the better and more accurate we can be in team placements.
