Winter Teams
Tryout Information
Tryout Fee – $39 (covers both tryouts; if a 3rd tryout is conducted, no additional cost)
STARS Basketball intends to form the following teams, to compete in area winter leagues, after conducting both tryout sessions; 9-10 players per team. *Note: Blue is top team; White is second team. The ability to form a second team (White Team) will be based on both coach supply and # of attendees/talent level of attendees.
· 4B/4G through 6B/6G – Blue Team and White Teams for each grade is the plan
For Friday, September 30th, please arrive at least 10 minutes prior to the tryout times to pick up your jersey. If you attended the September 23rd tryout, please make sure you wear the jersey you were given last week.
We will have a short, parent meeting during the last 5-8 minutes of each tryout session. For those of you that will miss tryout #2, we anticipate announcing “tryout results” no later than Friday, October 7th – 5:00 p.m.
