Athletes practice rain or shine. However, as you know by living in the Pacific Northwest, the weather can be unpredictable. The safety and well being of our athletes is our first priority. So if there are weather related concerns, we may cancel a lesson. If there is a cancellation due to severe weather, we will make every effort to post it on our BEACH CALENDAR  before practice.  There are no make-up practices due to weather related cancellations.

NW Juniors Elite Travel Team.

Step one in the process is to tryout for NW Juniors Elite Travel Team. Players will be selected to our travel team via the tryout process. We expect to take 16-24 total athletes in each category: U12/U14 and U16/U18. We will use the skill level of those at tryouts to determine the total number of athletes we select. 

We encourage all those interested in our Elite Travel Team to  tryout to see where they rank among those interested. However, we ask that athletes and their families look at the practice, tournament, and travel schedules in determining whether or not they wish to take a spot on the Elite Travel Team.  (Scroll down for further details and to register.)  

TRYOUT DATES: All Age groups U12-U18.
*If a player is accepted on our Travel Team, then the Travel Team registration link will be e-mailed to you once you accept the offer.  *Offers for our Travel Team will be made 2-5 days after the 2nd Tryout date.
*If a player is not selected, then they are encouraged to register for our regular non-travel beach club.

Players only need to attend ONE of these tryout times.

• If you participated in NW Juniors FALL ACADEMY last year in 2023 then you already have AAU Membership from participating in it.  

• If you are a NW Juniors Indoor Club Member then most teams played in an AAU tournament during the club season so those players already have AAU Membership.  The EXCEPTION: 14UA Navy, 15UA Navy, 16UA Navy, Boys Teams.  If you played on one of these teams, then you will need to get AAU Membership.
