Registration for the 2025 Season will open on June 4.
The Process
Step 1: Complete Online Registration
Registration is open and will be through the last day of tryouts. “Walk-ins” for all tryouts are welcome! We prefer for athletes to attend all tryout sessions for their age group to fairly evaluate them.

Step 7: Accept or decline offer to join Revolution Volleyball Club
Once a Club (through a player’s parent) offers a player a position on a team roster, the offer must remain open, without changes in conditions, for a minimum of 48 hours from the date/time of the offer as time stamped on the e-mailed offer unless the offer is declined, in writing, prior to the expiration of the offer period.
Once an offer is accepted, in writing, it is binding to that club unless the player is released in accordance with provisions of the relevant governing documents. Binding offers cannot be made to any player until the start of the tryout period. All written correspondence must be submitted via email.
FAQS
What if I can’t attend tryouts?
If you cannot make it to a tryout session for your age group, please notify us at [email protected] so we can try to arrange other means of assessment.
What if I am participating in my High School’s State Tournaments during Tryouts?
For those individuals participating in their respective high school state tournaments during the time of tryouts, Revolution would request you still participate. However, we will not include you in any “live” play. We will ask that you participate in individual type drills.
