Tryouts: The tryout and team selection process is carried out by the Wilsonville High School coaching staff. Parents who do not register their child on-line must come into the building on the first tryout night to sign a release that allows their child to participate. AAU players from prior seasons may not wear their old AAU gear to tryouts. Any child who attends an AAU tryout in Wilsonville is not eligible to attend an AAU tryout in any other city (such as West Linn) and vice versa.
