FAQs

Do I need to attend both trials?
You are welcome to attend both trials if you are able to but if you availability limits you to attending both you can just attend which ever one is best for you. Be sure to let us know in your registration when you are attending so we can ensure our coaches and helpers see you.

What if I cannot make any of the trials?
If you are interested in trialing for BVC Bears but cannot make any of the trials, please register so you can be considered and then let us know in your registration that you can't attend. Let us know your playing experience and then can contact you about other arrangements.

Can my friends and I be on the same team?
Unfortunately there are no guarantees which team you will be selected in to, if you are selected. BVC Bears runs as squads meaning that, if selected, you will be allocated into a squad and teams for games will be named closer to games. Due to injuries, availabilities and player skills/development, teams may change throughout the season and are at the discretion of the coaches.

How much are the season fees?
This is yet to be announced. We will let players/parents/caregivers know at trials the season costs.

When will squads be announced?
At the conclusion of trials, coaches will deliberate and decide on squads. At trials we will let you know when you will receive an offer if selected. There will be multiple offer round and then any unsuccessful trialists will be notified once all spots are filled.
