Canada is sending their youth to the Pan Am Cup... would be interesting to see if any of them can make the jump (especially at libero/setter/OH)
So far I see Emoni Bush and Kat Georgiadis.
I feel like I saw a next gen try out list... but I can't find it. maybe
newbeach knows.
I think the NEP (National Excellence Program) will be going to the Pan Am Cup (U18 or youth). I'm not dialed into this age group...Maybe someone else can help here?
The NEP team from the last couple of years (Winzer coached it in 2020) are starting to play NextGen. Some of last year's NextGen girls will likely be called up to the A team (*Thokbuom, MB)...?
Sorry, IDK who are all on the NextGen team yet for this year.
Kennedy Snape was the backup libero last year for the senior team. She will be playing again this year. There is also Brooke Malek and Julia Murmann. IDK any of the players going out yet. The A Team starts practice tomorrow in Richmond.
IDK for sure who will be playing NextGen or NEP (or senior NT)
we might see:
*Courtney Baker, S (was NextGen)
Anastasia Muzyka, S
Viktoria Wahlgren, S
Kaiya Tyson, S
Libero
*Kennedy Snape, L (likely on the Senior team again this year)
*Julia Murmann, L
maybe Bush, Hewlett, and Georgiadis, L
Middle
*Avery Heppel, MB
*Melissa Langegger, MB
OH
*Pantovic, Fayad...
OPP
*Natasha Calkins
*are my guesses for possible A team players or players with potential in near future...I guess in the next couple of days we'll see who is trying out for A-Team or called up.
Parker, Van Buskirk are out with injuries and I think so is Savard. I believe Joseph will no longer be with the team.
There will likely be a few additions including Veltman (MB)...will we see Bailey?
