Tryout and Selection Process

Mass Elite Basketball holds tryouts each year to select players for our teams. Tryouts are generally held for Spring teams in January/February, while sessions are held in August for Fall teams. All student-athletes are encouraged to pre-register in advance for tryouts. Typically, tryouts cost $35 per player, although we do offer an “Early Registration Period” for returning players to register at a reduced tryout fee.
