Girls Tennis Team Tryouts Information - 2023
Our Girls Tennis Tryouts are open to all high school students interested in joining our team.  To tryout for any sport, you must first register with our Athletics Department website using the following instructions: 

STEP 1 FOR ALL TRYOUTS:
Go to: https://lakebraddock-ar.rschooltoday.com/home  then select Activity Registration. 

Follow the instructions and make sure you have all of these completed in order to receive a TRYOUTS CARD from the Athletics Training office: 

1. CURRENT Physical Form – dated AFTER May 1, 2022
2. CURRENT Emergency Care Form
3. Online Concussion Education completed by both athlete and parent

Our tryouts begin on Monday, February 20th (a school holiday) and will continue until Wednesday, February 22nd.  By Wednesday, I will have had a chance to evaluate all the players trying out for the team and if necessary, I will make cuts on Wednesday after practice unless the weather limits our on-court time.  During tryouts, I use an evaluation sheet and make notes on each player trying out including notes on their tennis skills, general athleticism, challenge match results, and overall attitude and spirit.  If we had more courts and more time, I would prefer to keep all players who are willing to work as a member of the team but, unfortunately, we are limited in courts, time, and playing spots on the team. 

Tryouts Schedule - meet on the tennis courts, dressed and ready to go!
            Monday, 2/20 - 11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.  PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS A STUDENT HOLIDAY - make sure you can get to and from Lake Braddock
            Tuesday, 2/21 - 3:05 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. 
            Wednesday, 2/22 - 3:05 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. 
            *** If we have inclement weather, tryouts may be extended to Thursday, 2/23 ***

What to bring:  you’ll need tennis shoes (for courts), athletic wear with multiple layers given the weather we could have, your own tennis racquet, a water bottle, and the TRYOUT CARD mentioned above. 

FINALLY, if you did not attend an interest meeting for tennis this year, please email Coach Maxwell at - I will send you a few "welcome" documents including some homework for your to look at before tryouts, and instructions for signing up for our team Remind.com account. 

Thank you for your interest in trying out for our tennis team - I look forward to seeing you on the courts!
