FAQ
When are tryouts?
Tryouts typically begin October 20th for the Varsity team and last for 3 days. Please consult your summer mailing from the school for date specifics.
What kind of equipment do I need for tryouts?
Please wear comfortable workout clothes, running shoes, and basketball shoes.
How many players are usually kept on the team and are their “cuts”?
Archbishop Mitty fields 3 women’s basketball teams; a freshmen, junior varsity, and a varsity team. Since the number of coaches available to the program is determined by league rules, the Frosh, JV, and Varsity rosters are limited to ensure a good player-to-coach ratio suitable for teaching and learning as defined by the varsity head coach. This number typically varies between 12-14 players per team.
Is there a chance I could make one of the teams even though I have never played “club” or “AAU” basketball before?
Of course! It is not a pre-requisite to play “club” in order to make the roster.
Can a freshman make the varsity team?
