We Make It Easy To Join Synchro
We have regular tryout days in the spring that are open to all skaters. You can also request a tryout if you can't attend or are trying to join past the tryout dates. We will invite your skater to a practice to skate with the team and have a small info chat with you after to see where your skater's opportunity lies!
What Can I Expect?
