Tryout Dates/Times/Locations:

What About Middle School Teams?

We will hold 7th and 8th grade tryouts after the OHSAA winter seasons have ended.  Be sure to keep checking this page for Middle school updates.

What About High School Teams?

We do not hold official tryouts for our high school teams, but make offers during fall open gyms and/or watching high school games during the winter season. If needed, we will hold additional open gyms in the spring to determine and/or complete rosters. If you are interested in playing for a high school team, please register and appropriate coaches will reach out if roster spots are available.

Team Selection

The Dayton Lady Hoopstars recognize the immense amount and level of talent in the Greater Dayton Area.  With that we conduct tryouts to determine the best fit for each team respective to the players' skill level.  It is not necessarily the case that the 10-12 "best" players will make the top team.  Each coach evaluates the talent available with the intent to construct the best TEAM possible.  A number of factors go into this decision including but not limited to: skill level, team play, attitude, effort, coach-ability, leadership, adaptability, basketball understanding.  Other extenuating factors that influence team selection include: 

• OHSAA regulations - 2 per school rule (7th-11th grade)
• Potential playing time, commitment level, prior knowledge of a player from assessments during their school season.
