tryout RULES & INFOrmation
​
1. Make sure you attend the correct age group according to the chart below only. While birthdates listed in OVR charts may allow a player to be eligible by grade level, but not by birthdate, we only accept players to teams playing to your birthdate, except 9U which may play either. There may be some tournaments on the schedule outside of OVR/USAV in which having a birthdate too early for the age division is not permitted, regardless of the grade level, except for 9U.
2024-25 Age Divisions for Arsenal Teams:
9U : Born on or after 7/1/15 -OR- 3rd grade and lower
10U : Born 7/1/14 - 6/30/15
11s : Born 7/1/13 - 6/30/14
12s : Born 7/1/12 - 6/30/13
13s : Born 7/1/11 - 6/30/12
14s : Born 7/1/10 - 6/30/11
15s : Born 7/1/09 - 6/30/10
16s : Born 7/1/08 - 6/30/09
17s : Born 7/1/07 - 6/30/08
​
2. Tryout for the level National (Highest), American, or Regional (Lowest) which you would like to be considered. You can visit our I'm New FAQs for more information on the differences between levels of play. We recommend choosing the highest level which you would like to be considered as we will also consider your player for all levels under that during the tryout process. Ages 9-10 will not need to select a level as they're all labeled 9U or 10U, meaning they can play any level of tournament.
​
3. You must attend at least one tryout date and may attend more. If you attend more than one tryout date, you are charged for each date you attend. Tryout dates can be found above. Returning early contracted Arsenal players must attend at least one tryout to be evaluated for specific team placement. If you received and accepted a team-specific offer (ex: 11U Schutte), you must attend at least one tryout, however you do not have to register or pay for that tryout.
