Vision Elite Academy
VISION VBC TRYOUTS

EVALUATE. PLACE. EMPOWER.EVERY ATHLETE FINDS THEIR PATH.

At VISION, tryouts are more than just a selection process—they’re an evaluation designed to find the right program for every athlete. Held each year in December and January, these sessions give our coaches the opportunity to assess skill, effort, and potential. Athletes who are selected will be placed in our VISION Club (VBC) program, where they’ll compete at the club level. Those not selected for a VBC team won’t be left behind. Instead, they’ll be offered a place in one of our other VISION programs, such as the VISION Academy (VEA), where athletes continue to train, develop, and compete in a positive environment.

Our promise

In short: All athletes are placed. Every family is welcomed. Everyone has a path forward.

  • Every athlete who attends tryouts is placed in a program that matches their current level and goals
  • No one is “cut” — we find the right pathway for each athlete
  • Families can feel confident knowing their child will have a place to grow, play, and belong

All VISION Club coaches must complete the VISION Elite coach training academy. This involves our exclusive online program and mentorship with our Regional Head Coaches.
