The tryout process may also consist of written tests of which the topics for such tests to be handed out at the annual organizational meeting on the first Monday of classes. Topics may include, but not limited to, the Program Philosophy and Player Covenant, the Handbook, and scholarship and fundraising, to name a few. These statistics, grades, and other testing stats done by the coaching staff may or may not be posted on the shocker bowling bulletin board for the players' information. After those three weeks, the final team selections will be made to determine the players who will make up the teams that will compete for Wichita State University for the upcoming season.
Coaches reserve the right to make changes in the tryout process at their discretion.
These classes will be held during the year, on a pre-announced schedule for roughly 10 sessions. Due to the number of those attending, different classrooms may be required in which to conduct the class. The location of upcoming classes will be posted on the shocker bowling bulletin board, located in the Rec Center, on a timely basis. Attendance, participation, tests and quizzes in the class will play a role in the team selection process and the 1 hour credit grade. In addition, this class will make up a large part of the requirements for those student-athletes enrolled in Shocker Bowling 110D, for both Fall and Spring semesters.
