Thanks for your interest in joining our volleyball club. For over 15 years we have successfully trained athletes and prepared kids for life. We have qualified teams for Nationals every season, have placed hundreds of athletes in college, and have many that went on to play professionally. The tryout process has changed in the North Texas Region, so please take a moment to read the information below.
We are offering Pre Tryout and Team Placement clinics starting May 8th. These are fast paced clinics where our coaches can evaluate athletes interested in being a member of our club.
How to be evaluated for an Instinct Team
- Between the day after NTR Bid Regionals on May 5, 2025 and the acceptance date on July 8th, 2025, clubs can start evaluating athletes. Starting on May 19th, 2025, verbal or written non-binding offers without signature(s) may begin to be made by any club to any player in the region at this time. Official binding written offers and exchange of money is not allowed until the acceptance date.
- Acceptance day is on July 8th, 2025. For all USA Volleyball age groups, the acceptance date is July 8, 2025 for all age groups. Club Directors may make binding offers and may accept any form of payment on or after the acceptance date.
- Attend as many Instinct Pre Tryouts & Team Placement Clinics and Positional Camps starting on May 7, 2025.
- Starting on May 19th, our coaching staff will start making verbal non-binding offers.
- Let the club and coaches know that you are interested in the club.
- Communication is crucial during this period. You can be evaluated by other clubs and we can evaluate other players. If you receive a verbal offer during the evaluation period and decide to accept it, we kindly ask you to be mindful of other players and families. Once an athlete accepts a verbal offer, our coaches continue to evaluate players but nor for that specific position in that specific team.
- Register for Tryouts. We recommend attending the main session on July 5th.
