BOYS HP ALL-STARS
The Badger Region Boys’ High Performance (HP) All-Star program is an avenue for the region’s premier players to receive training and competition opportunities from some of the top coaches in Badger Region. Our program is the regional chapter of the USA Volleyball’s National Team Development Program. As a part of the HP pipeline, our program follows international age definitions and program offerings each year.
The goal of the teams who compete at the international tournament is to medal in their respective divisions while also accomplishing the following throughout the process:
- Expose athletes to high-level college (NCAA and NAIA) recruiters who attend the international tournament.
- Offer a college-like sports experience where athletes learn what it is like to be treated like an elite-level athlete.
- Be a part of independent travel experience led by highly certified Badger Region staff and HP Coaches
- Gain exposure to elite level coaching provided by the Midwest’s highest-level club and college coaches.
- Compete and train alongside other all-star caliber athletes from around the Badger Region.
- Play against other all-star teams from around the country and the world
There are three stages of the Badger Region Boys’ HP program: tryouts, training team/camp and championship team.

BADGER REGION HP TRYOUTS
The Badger Region HP tryout is open to any Badger Region member of the appropriate age wishing to join the Badger Region HP program. Attending the tryout allows players to make the Badger Region HP All-Star Training Team and ultimately the Badger Region HP Championship Team.
If an athlete has a conflict and has other commitments on the date listed for his or her age, special considerations will be made on a case-by-case basis. These athletes must still register for tryouts and submit a video for tryout review. Registration for in-person tryout closes the Wednesday before the tryout date listed above. No refunds are given for tryout registration.
Athletes will train all together at two training dates in April/May/June.
