All students will have the opportunity to "try-out" for a team.  Try-outs will be determined by the coach and all skill levels will be observed by the coach.  A student’s athletic experience, and the number of other students trying out for the team, will determine the difficulty of "making a team."  The CIU athletic administration will encourage inclusiveness, but ultimately the coach is in charge of the formation of his/her team with the goal of being competitive in the NCCAA.
