Players may receive an offer at any time during the tryout period.

For more information, please refer to the Tryout Process information in CHRVA Junior Recruiting Policy.


Teams & Age Groups

MOCO will offer multiple teams in each of the U11, U12, U13, U14, U15, U16, and U17 divisions.  To determine your age group, please consult the USAV 2025-2026 Age Definitions or use our Age Calculator below.

We may add additional teams if circumstances allow, including younger teams in the U10 or U11 divisions.

"Playing Up" policy: Players who want to try out for an age group above their designated group may only do so with the approval of the club.  This is not common, and when considering the request we consider player skill level, grade in school, and relative age to the rest of the team. Please register for the appropriate age group and provide a complete history of their volleyball experience.  On the registration form, you may select an additional age group to request a tryout for.    We will review your request and let you know if you can attend the older tryout in addition to your age group tryout.
