How to try out for Varsity Team/
Join A Sports Club

Explore the various sports offered by your school or university, considering your skills and preferences. Ensure you meet any academic or athletic requirements for participation. Research the specific contact details (coach, club president) and tryout schedules for your desired team or club. Check the available student sports organizations directories on this website. Once you have the details, contact the coach or club representative for information about tryouts, practice schedules, and anynecessary equipment. Clearly communicate your enthusiasm and willingness to commit to the team or club. If applicable, participate in the official tryouts, showcasing your skills and following the coach’s instructions. After tryouts,
be proactive in following up with the coach or representative to inquire about the outcome. If selected, actively participate and contribute to the team or club. If not selected, consider supporting the team or exploring alternative sports options. Be aware of the potential time commitment involved in practices, games/competitions, and potential travel.
