3:30-5 p.m. Monday-Wednesday, Oct. 20-22 in the main gym
Evaluation Process:
A minimum of three to five coaches will be evaluating during try-outs. No parents are allowed.
Players will need to wear a T-shirt with their last name on the back. (Not provided)
Players can visit with Coach Waters before tryouts if they need help getting a shirt.
Three days of tryouts could be used, but cuts can occur after the first and second day of tryouts if coaching evaluations dictate a clear cut-off with player skill levels.
Fourteen to 16, typically, will make the team with regard to position. For example, keeping 16 point guards is unlikely. Players are basically competing against others that play the same position (guards/forwards). It will be an advantage if a player demonstrates the ability to play both positions (versatility).
Google classroom will post tryout rosters. Use code: gkkldxy to join the group.
There are a few grounds that will automatically keep you from making the school team:
Complete lack of effort or not taking the tryout seriously.
Arguing, cussing, or insubordination with players and coaches during the tryout.
Player fails (grade below 60%) three or more classes from first-quarter final grades.
General Information:
Please dress appropriately for tryouts. Comfortable athletic shoes, shorts, and a T-shirt (your last name on back) should be worn. No jewelry should be worn. Bring a water bottle with your name on it. Bring your inhaler if you use one. Please do not bring a basketball; they will be provided for you. Please have your ride pick you up outside the physical education doors when tryouts are finished by 5:00 p.m. each day.
*If you are selected to be on the Mission Trail basketball team, you will not be allowed to play on an outside-of-school basketball team until our school basketball season ends.
