Players looking to be a a national team should plan on attending the tryouts at the Dunes Operation Center.

You may attend as many tryouts as you like, Elite players usually attend at least two tryouts.

If you try out for an elite team and are not selected on one of those teams, you will automatically be placed on to a semi or local team. It is our policy to place everyone on a team.

Local team players may go to any tryout location for their tryout. Players will be placed on a team where requested, when possible, according to IHSAA regulations and team numbers.

Preregistration is recommended. However, we will accept same day registration.
