North Point is determined to provide the highest quality of Volleyball instruction to youth, ages eight through eighteen. It is the mission of North Point to teach life lessons through the spirit of competition, not only against opponents, but on a daily basis as players compete for positions. All players are taught how to respect the game of volleyball by learning the fundamentals of the game and implementing these skills each and every time they step foot on the volleyball court. Players are taught to believe in themselves by working hard and preparing themselves mentally, physically, and spiritually for any and all activities in which they participate.

North Point Evaluation & Tryout Process For Club Teams

RETURNING North Point Players from 2017/18 Season

North Point is permitted to make specific team offers to returning players for the 2018-2019 season at anytime.  There are no dates or guidelines that must be followed for current North Point players to be offered a spot on a team for the 2018-2019 club season.  You will not be able to sign a contract and make payment until the official acceptance date for your age group (July 21 for 15's-18's and July 28 for 10's-14's).  We encourage returning North Point Volleyball players to attend as many camps/clinics as possible prior to the official acceptance date for your age group.  This will allow us to evaluate each player and each team properly as we go through the process.  

Players that are new to North Point

North Point is not permitted to make an official offer to a player new to North Point until the start of the Evaluation Period (July 5th).  Players that are new to North Point are encouraged to attend as many camps/clinics at North Point prior to the Evaluation Period (July 5) and North Point can express their interest in you playing for North Point, but we cannot offer you a position on a specific team until the Evaluation Period begins (July 5).  All players will be able to officially accept their offers on the Acceptance Date for their age group (July 21 for 15's-18's and July 28 for 10's-14's).  During the Evaluation Period prior to the Acceptance Date, North Point will make "non-binding" offers to both new and returning players.
