2027 Tryouts Start This Fall
We’re excited to host try-outs for the 2026/27 season for girls ages 12U to 18U, with one team per age group.
• Try-Out Timing: Fall try-outs will begin in September, and winter try-outs (if necessary) will start immediately after High School Provincials at the end of November.
• Structure: We typically hold two try-out sessions per age group, followed by team offers, a parent meeting, and jersey fitting.
• Cost: A $20 fee covers all try-out sessions.
• Registration: Our online registration form will be available August 15 on our website and announced via our social media channels.
• Schedule: Try-out dates and times will be emailed to all registered athletes
After try-outs, our teams take a short break—then it's full steam ahead starting in January!
Practice Schedule:
• Days: Tuesdays, Thursdays & Sundays
• Duration:
– 12U & 13U: 90 minutes
– 14U to 18U: 120 minutes

Competition Season:
Volleyball Alberta Premiers and Provincials take place roughly once a month, starting at the end of January. These events are typically held in Calgary or Edmonton. In addition to VA tournaments, we also:
• Arrange exhibition matches
• Enter private tournaments
• Host our own home tournament
Season Timeline:
• Season Start: January
• Provincials: April
• Nationals (for older teams): May
Be sure to check our website calendar for confirmed dates and event details!
Each athlete’s fees include tournament entry costs (all Volleyball Alberta Premiers, Provincials, Nationals, and minimum of 2 Private tournaments), coach expenses, gym rentals, and a player clothing package.
Final costs vary depending on the number of private tournaments a team enters and how many players are on the roster. Estimates are based on 12 players per team. For the 2025/26 season, our approximate fee breakdown was:
• 12U: $900
• 13U–14U: $1000–$1500
• 15U–18U: $1600–$2000
Please note: Hotels and travel expenses are additional and are the responsibility of families.
We always welcome team sponsors—their generous contributions go a long way in reducing the financial burden on families. If you or your business are interested in supporting a team, please reach out!
