Tryout Information page has a table at the bottom of the page to help determine what age a child will be eligible for. If you find the table confusing, you can use the following methodology to help determine the appropriate age group. What age will the athlete be on August 31, 2018. And then for the 2017-2018 club volleyball season, use that age for the appropriate age group. For example, if Susie will be 14 on August 31, 2018, then based on her age she would be a 14U player. Unfortunately, there are exceptions to every rule since players can also be grade eligible for a certain age group that might be different than their age. See the next question for more on age vs. grade level eligibility.
