After Tryouts
We don’t play games with roster spots. Coaches call within a week of the final tryout.
If she’s offered a spot, we’ll tell you exactly what team, what role she’d play, and who her coach will be, before you decide. We do our best to place her on a team that matches her skill level and goals.

Letters of Commitment
You’ll be asked to sign a “Letter of Commitment,” a one-season contract that binds your daughter to one club. Before you sign anywhere, here’s what to know:
Aftershock is an NCVA club. If you’ve signed a commitment letter for a WCVA club, it does not apply to us. You can still try out for Aftershock.
Within the NCVA, Letters of Commitment do matter. They prevent club-hopping. If you’ve committed to another NCVA club, you can still try out, but you’ll need a release before accepting a spot.
Before signing, confirm the club’s association (NCVA or WCVA) and read the refund and release policies.
