COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Dec. 15, 2021) – Registration is now open for the 2022 USA Volleyball Women’s National Team Open Program, which is scheduled for Feb. 25-27 at the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.
The Women’s National Team Open Program, formerly known as the Open Tryout, is a part of the selection process for the U.S Women’s National Team, USAV’s NCAA Elite Athlete List, and USAV’s 2022 Collegiate National Team.
“After missing a year, we are excited to bring back our WNT Open Program in 2022,” said U.S. Women’s National Team Head Coach Karch Kiraly. “The Open Program is an excellent opportunity for our Women’s National Team staff to observe USA Volleyball hopefuls under one roof. This country is filled with young volleyball talent, and for our National Team to sustain competitive excellence, our WNT staff must be dialed in to the growing potential throughout our National Team Development Program as well as top NCAA student-athletes. We are looking forward to a great program in Colorado Springs this February.”
The Open Program is available to current and recently graduated, college-age athletes born in the years 1997-2003 inclusive. Athletes born outside of this age group may contact Erin Virtue at erin.virtue@usav.org for approval to attend.
The 2022 U.S. Women’s Collegiate National Team (WCNT) will train in Anaheim, Calif., alongside U.S. Women’s National Team athletes and staff. This immersive training experience will help accelerate the development of top collegiate athletes and give athletes an inside look at the culture and training of Olympic gold medalists. Dates for the WCNT training block will be announced soon.
Registration is open now until January 21, 2022. To register, visit https://go.usav.org/WNTOpen.
