*Contracted Arsenal players (players already listed on our results page for Ages 10-11) do not have to attend tryouts again, but may if they would like to be seen again. In that case, you do not need to pay or register again, simply show up to the date you'd like to attend.
tryout RULES & INFOrmation
​
1. Make sure you attend the correct age group according to the "Traditional" USAV definition (not the OVR grade level definition) as found on the OVR's Age Divisions. While birthdates listed in the chart that allow a player to be eligible by grade level, but not by birthdate, we only accept players to teams playing to your birthdate. 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.
​
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 10-11 will not need to select a level as they're all labeled 10U or 11U, 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. Contracted Arsenal players do not have to attend tryouts again but may if they would like to be seen again. In that case, you do not need to pay or register again, simply show up to the date you'd like to attend.
