PLAY WITH LEGACY

CLUB LEGACY HAS TRAVEL & NON TRAVEL TEAMS FOR 10U/11U - 18U PLAYERS

Club Legacy believes in the tryout process and we hold these tryouts in the Fall of each year, typically starting in October for the 10U/11U-14U players and the Sunday immediately following the Nebraska State Volleyball Tournament for our 15U - 18U players.

We hold Club Team Informational Meetings starting in October for those who want to learn more about the club season.  It is also an opportunity to meet our Senior Club Director, Steve Bymers, & Director & Club Administrator, Steph Peterson,  and the rest of the Legacy Staff.

We discuss the tryout process, expectations for the upcoming season, travel and our Strength and Agility Partner, Explosive Edge owner, Gibbie Duval, is also at the meeting to discuss the program.

October 3rd - 6:30 - 7:30

October 19th - 6:30 - 7:30

Both meetings will be held in the conference rooms on the Grill side of The Mark.

Frequently Asked Questions

Additional Fees? Participation in additional tournaments, three day local tourneys, travel tourneys and any additional items are not included with the season fees for that age group. A Club Legacy backpack is required for all players and are available to purchase during club uniform fitting registration. If a player has a Legacy backpack they are not required to purchase a new one each year.


Tournament Hotels: Most traveling tournaments that Club Legacy participates in are "Stay & Play Tournaments" therefore Legacy teams are required to stay at certain hotels.  Legacy will make hotel arrangements for all other travel tournaments those that are not "Stay & Play Tournaments" also.  This is to provide a central location for all teams to stay if possible, Legacy does not make a profit off of the hotels players stay at.

Additional Information

Pre Tryout Clinics - October

We will have PreTryout Clinics for both National & Regional Team Players for 10/11U - 18U Players.  Players that are interested in trying out for Regional Teams are welcome to attend any National PreTryout Clinics also.  High School Players that are still in season (on the varsity roster) with their school team are not able to attend the clinics until their school season is over.


Please double check the Age Definition Chart Below to confirm which age your player will be trying out for in the upcoming season.  

Team Formation - October & November

The tryout process is a standard procedure used by the Club Legacy coaches, evaluator and administration to assess the skills, abilities, and potential of players who wish to be part of a team. Tryouts are typically held in October for the 10/11U - 14U players for the upcoming season. 15U - 18U players will have tryouts in November, the Sunday immediately after High School state tournaments.

During tryouts, players are asked to demonstrate various volleyball skills such as serving, passing, setting, hitting, blocking, and defense. Players will also scrimmage for the last part of the tryout process to see the players play, how they work with other players & process the input from coaches. Coaches and evaluators closely observe the players' performance, attitude, body language, and teamwork abilities.

The goal is to identify players who show skills, are willing to listen and put in to play the coaches feedback and are the best fit for the team's needs.

The selection process can be competitive, players who display talent, potential for growth, and good teamwork skills are more likely to be selected for the teams. Those who do not make a team may be offered opportunities to improve their skills through further training or developmental programs.

Tryouts are an essential part of building  strong and competitive volleyball teams, as they help ensure that the players selected are capable of performing at the desired level and can work effectively together as a cohesive unit.
