2024 Boys Winter Tryout

HOW MANY TEAMS DO YOU HAVE PER GRADE?

We aim for no more than  (2) teams at every age level, however the number of players who participate in tryouts during each season will ultimately determine the number of teams that we have each year. The Colorado Roughriders are a competitive organization and not all of the players that tryouts will be placed on a team.

HOW ARE TEAMS SELECTED? All players are evaluated by our coaching staff. After our evaluation process, the players are selected, placed on a team and informed by email and asked to commit in the following 72 hours.

HOW MANY PLAYERS ARE SELECTED FOR EACH TEAM?

Our goal is to have 9 - 10 players on each team.

WHO ARE THE ROUGHRIDER COACHES? All our coaches are USA Basketball Certified and are either former High School, College or Professional coaches or players.

WHAT PRACTICES ARE MANDATORY? 

• ALL! (2) practices per week. If you can not attend we must know 24 hours prior so we can adjust our practice plan if needed. 
• We will practice (2) days each week and require each player to attend a sports membership class (1) day a week.
