Loudoun Elite announced 2 u15 teams- sent offers- then decided they didn’t have enough strong players to field a 2s team- then just announced a little bit ago they are putting the 2s team together after all. Free tryout tonight for u15 and u16. Monday- 11/6- hoops plus 7-9

Does anyone have a sense of whether the volleyball players at McLean High School also play for clubs and if so, which ones? Does she need to play club to make and succeed on the McLean team?

I have a U16 player who received this call back. She already missed tryouts for other clubs because of MOJO original tryout and a first call back. Are both 16s teams fully formed? If so, what's the point for this final callback? There is no cost to it. We might end up club less this year since we put all the eggs in the Mojo basket.

Also, we did attend Renaissance main tryout and did not hear back. Any point to reach out to Chris?

thank you!

She is 5’10” and is not a show-off type player but is solid and reliably steadfast, for example her HS coach would always put her in when the team was neck and neck in a pinch bc she can get the job done. She has club experience but her old local “popular” club recently “dissolved” and now she is homeless. She did a bunch of clinics but never wed herself to any particular club bc she wanted to keep her options open. Now we are freaking out. Any advice or tips? She is a 9/10 reliable server and hits into the box 9/10 although she isn’t a powerhouse. She admittedly isn’t the strongest (she has a trainer and is working on that) but she puts the work in and gives 110%. Are there any clubs still looking for girls after this weekend? It seems such a shame that she will be relegated to playing Rec when she is clearly a club level player but maybe is overlooked in the masses.

There are definitely clubs that have more tryouts on Monday.

Mojo is still looking for some 16s and up


I know Renaissance has a Monday evening tryout for 15U and may be looking for a couple of more players. For what it’s worth- the few moms I have spoken to who have met the coaches (I believe they are all either accepting or will accept their offer for that team) really liked the coaches- both the moms and the daughters. (They have their final tryouts for all ages on Monday evening)

Mojo sent that email re a third tryout for those older age groups but all offers have been sent for 16u. It seems like a HUGE money grab (something metro would do) for them to have sent that email last nigh at 5pm sharp.
