On Wednesday, November, 12 at 10:37 pm the results for club tryouts were posted but the time leading up to it was super stressful!
On Monday and Tuesday I tried out for a 15s Select Team for Club V. (This year they changed the teams around and decided to add a new group. The order of the teams you could be on are Club, Comp, Elite, or Select.) I didn’t go into tryouts very confident in myself because the girls I was competing against for a spot on the select team were more athletic, taller, louder and had better skills than I did.

On the first day of tryouts, 43 girls were pushing for a spot in the Select pool. They didn’t tell us how many girls were going to be on a team or how many teams they were going to make. I was expecting three teams because of the level of the girls and the amount so I was telling myself that I just had to be in the top 30. They slowly took girls away and told them to move down to the next court. At the end of the second day they ended with 26 girls and told us they were going to make two teams and they would be posted at 10:00 on Wednesday. At this point I couldn’t be more nervous for the outcome.
The whole next day I couldn't stop refreshing the Club V website. My friend and I, from Park City, were both trying out for the team. I was kinda doubting myself on making the top team because everyone at tryouts was SO good!
I wouldn't say it was worth the wait but I was on cloud nine knowing the results! I made it!!
