Tryouts for Girls U15 Seavc Gold on Dec 3/4/5. I ask that anyone who is interested contact me for more information and to register their daughter(s) as I have one court for each day and will likely have to split them into different groups due to space. 

My name is Chris Cass and I am the head coach of the Girls U15 Seavc Rattlers Gold Volleyball team. I have played volleyball for 26 years at varying levels, school, college, and rec. However, its coaching where I have really redeveloped my love for the game over the past few seasons whether its coaching during the club season or at the high school level.

This season our club will be holding tryouts for our team, with hopes of selecting a group of girls who are committed to developing their skills, dedicating themselves to teamwork, and continually progressing not only as athletes but as human beings all while having fun and balancing the desire to compete and win. The U15 group is an important age for these girls as some prepare to enter High School and push to make a spot on their JV or SR teams and others push for more playing time or for that promotion to their SR teams. Its with that in mind that I hope to see as many girls come out to tryouts as possible, especially given the circumstances the last few seasons.

Club Volleyball is a long season that requires heavy dedication, our season will run from the beginning of December when tryouts start until the end of May when Nationals finish. Practices will be held 3 times a week on Tuesday/Wednesday/Friday nights during weeks with no tournaments, on weeks with tournaments we will practice Thursday night instead of Fridays. Practices will run between 6-8 pm with the odd practice between 8-10 pm. We will also be attending the following tournaments:

            Premier #1 Feb 26-27 Calgary

            Premier #2 Mar 19-20 Calgary

            Premier #3 Apr 9-10 Edmonton

            Provincials May 7-8 Calgary

            Nationals May 18-21 Edmonton

 We may attend a few smaller tournaments throughout the season as well. This is a tremendous opportunity for any athletes that wish to tryout to continue developing their skills and make some once in a lifetime memories. That commitment and dedication means that fees for this year’s team could be upwards of $1000 per player depending upon fundraising, and sponsorship(s). I know that a lot of the girls are multi-sport athletes and that its important for them to continue playing as many sports as they can to stay active. However, I do expect a strong commitment to this team as there will likely be girls who would be willing to commit that end up getting cut. Please think of your willingness to commit to the team before coming to tryouts as I expect a commitment of at least 80% of all events/practices etc. We will have our first team practice on Dec 7 for anyone selected to the team, at that time I would also like a monetary deposit of $300 for each player.

Please note all players will need to be fully vaccinated to participate this season as per Alberta Volleyball. To tryout all participants will also need to be registered as recreational players through Alberta Volleyball on their website as well.

If you have a child that is interested in trying out and fits into the U15 Age category (September 1 2006-Dec 31 2007). Please email me at chriscmhr@gmail.com for tryout dates and times, depending upon numbers I may end up breaking the girls into a couple groups over the 3 tryout nights. You can also email me with any questions you may have regarding the upcoming season.

There will be two teams this year for the U14 age group split into an ‘A’ and a ‘B’ team. Myself, Shonna Barth and Tim Bloomfield will be coaching the ‘A’ team and Sai Wong will be coaching the ‘B’ Team.

We will be attending to the following four U14 Alberta Volleyball Tournaments:

• February 11-12 Premier 1 - Calgary
• March 11-12 Premier 2 – Calgary
• April 1-2 Premier 3 – Calgary
• April 22-23 Provincials – Edmonton

There could be several more tournaments that we end up attending but that will be decided by each coach for their team.

There will be a team meeting/practice on December 14 from 6:30 to 8:00 (Southridge YMCA) for those players that make the teams in order to give more information about the season and meet each other. We would also like to take a monetary deposit of ($200) at that time to solidify the player’s spot on the team. Practices will then start in January and will be held 2 nights a week and on Sunday afternoons. We understand that many athletes participate in other sports (Basketball, soccer, dance, gymnastics etc) and it is important to their development as an athlete to continue with the different activities. We do expect a strong commitment to this team though as there will likely be girls who would be willing to commit that are cut. Please think about the willingness to commit to the team before coming to tryouts as we expect a commitment of at least 80% of the teams events/practices etc. Expected costs for each player will be in the range of $800-$1000.
