Positional Clinics

Positional clinics will be posted closer to tryout dates. Depending on number of coaches and gym availability, will provide varying age groups, positions and skill level. Please stay tuned for any more information regarding positional clinics. 

 

Please note these clinics are free for HOV 2022-2023 travel players. However, if a travel player signs up and does not show up, they will be charged $10 to their sports engine account. If you are a NON-HOV travel player during the 2022-2023, the clinics cost $40/hour. 

Practice Player Availability

For those who have missed tryouts, practice player availability is an option. Players will be assessed on skill level and availability of space on a team to decide what team they will be assigned to be a practice player. If a player has participated on a school team or another travel team, we may ask to see video of the player to help assess the level of team to place the player on. 

Practice players are also an option if traveling is not an option for your family. This allows your player to still training during this season but for a lesser cost and less travel. 

Practice player includes the ability to practice with a travel team, attend all events and additional trainings at no additional cost and have the ability to travel to tournaments if the team is missing any players on their current roster. 

Cost: TBD per team
