Updated AAU tryout schedules for 2023 teams
Updated Aug. 13 at 6:00 p.m.
The conclusion of the Meltdown tournament marks the end of Minnesota’s AAU season, and you know what that means. The chase has already begun to build rosters for 2023. Recruiting of top talent will be hot and heavy in the weeks ahead with most of that activity going on away from the public eye. However, there will be plenty of public workouts/tryouts where all comers can take their chances and try to make a roster for next spring. We’ll update this information frequently with a focus on teams in the Classes of 2027 to 2024.
We provide basic information on dates, times and locations. Refer to the club’s website for more details. The years listed refer to the player’s high school graduation year, which is our preferred way of designating teams rather than by grade or 17U, 16U, etc. Clubs are listed in alphabetical order.
Note to clubs: If your organization is not included here, or it needs to be updated or corrected, please email gmachoops@gmail.com and we will make the updates as soon as possible.
