TEAM TRYOUTS
Hi incoming and returning CSM students! We’re excited to announce tryouts for the Fall 2024 season, and we’re super stoked to have more people join the team. We welcome all undergraduate and graduate students to try out! While the team welcomes people from a wide range of skill levels, we are a competitive team and have a minimum comp requirement for each semester

Tryouts will be held on September 3rd and 4th in the Student Recreation Center (SRC) at CSM. Please sign up for a one-hour time slot within the 7:00–10:00 PM time range.
