Welcome to Ottawa Fusion Volleyball Competitive Team Tryouts 2025-26

Please read carefully the following information before proceeding to registration.

TRYOUT FORMAT

Tryouts include 2 on-court sessions plus 1 fitness evaluation.

ON-COURT SESSIONS

These 2 sessions run 90-120 minutes and include both individual and team skill training and evaluation. On-court sesssions are at gyms posted on the Tryout Schedule.

Our coaches will first demonstrate skills then support the athlete during the evaluation process. Effort, receptivity to feedback, and athleticism are key performance indicators our coaches are looking for.

FITNESS EVALUATIONS

This session runs approximately 60 minutes and are provided by our Elite Strength and Conditioning partner SportScience Rehab and Performance (https://www.sportsciencecanada.com/). Fitness testing is at their studio located at: 1051 Baxter Rd Unit 22B, Ottawa, ON K2C 3P1. In the following days you will receive information on "How to schedule your individual evaluation", please book your slot immediately once you receive the email.

In the fitness evaluation the athlete will be put through the most comprehensive fitness assessment available in the province. A detailed report will be provided to all athletes following the tryout period (regardless of tryout outcome). For athletes selected to Compete Teams, this assessment will be your baseline from which you will be tested against throughout the season.

All tryout sessions and fitness testing are considered mandatory. In the event of an injury or conflict, please contact our club head coach (ClubHC@Ottawafusion.ca) to inform of your absence and discuss alternatives. 

TRYOUT SCHEDULE

The Tryout schedule is posted on the Fusion website here: https://www.ottawafusion.ca/compete-indoor

AGE GROUPS

Ontario Volleyball has developed a comprehensive age categorization to ensure athletes are provided the opportunity to compete in a class commensurate with physical development.

We ask all athletes to register and report to the on-court sessions designated for their chronological age category.

Evaluation results are made available to all our coaches. Should an athlete demonstrate they have both the technical skills and physical attributes to play up in age, consideration will be given. Similar if an athlete is born between September and December, they can be given consideration to play at the age group that is one year younger. During the tryout process we make every attempt to best identify what team best fits the athletes long term development in the sport.

ONTARIO VOLLEYBALL ASSOCIATION MRS On or after September 1st, as per the requirement from the Ontario Volleyball Association (OVA), all athletes must register as a try-out player in their Member Registration System (MRS) prior to tryouts. This is to ensure the athlete and parent/guardian have reviewed and signed off on the Waiver of Liability and the Rowans Law Concussion policy and education sheets, as mandated by law by the government of Ontario. Create an account for your child or login to the OVA MRS website here: https://mrs.ontariovolleyball.org/Account/Login. Please ensure the account’s name is under your child’s – not under the parent/guardian’s name. The OVA has created step-by-step resources including how to create an account and how to reset/change your password here: https://www.ontariovolleyball.org/become-a-member While going through the registration, select “Try-out Player” on the “Registration – Role Selection” page. This membership is free. Players will be asked to show proof of registration that shows they are listed as a “try-out player”. Please note this is mandatory in order to participate in tryouts and it is the responsibility of OVA Clubs to verify OVA athletes’ registration prior to participating in tryouts. A screenshot or printed copy of the account dashboard that clearly indicates the player’s name and try-out membership is required. Please do not email us proof of registration before the tryouts. If you are having any difficulties with your account or membership, please contact Mylene Andrade, OVA Member Services Coordinator, at 416-426-7132 or mandrade@ontariovolleyball.org If you have any questions, please email tryouts@ottawafusion.ca
