All levels welcome!

All skill levels are welcome at PacNW’s Junior Academy. U8 & U9 RCL teams are selected through tryouts, but any player is welcome to join the Junior Academy Teams.

PacNW offers many tutorial videos for players to practice essential skills. These are not required, but regularly practicing these skills will help players improve fundamental skills.

One series offers sequential videos that increase in difficulty, where players should challenge themselves to master each level before moving to the next. Other videos on PacNW’s Junior Academy Youtube page, offer tutorials on specific moves.

All players need is a ball and determination!
