Georgia Metros Nike Travel Team Tryouts:
2014 Season - Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors
Saturday March 15th - 10am to 2pm - Southwest DeKalb High School - 2863 Kelley Chapel Road, Decatur, GA 30034
Sunday March 16th - 2pm to 6pm - Southwest DeKalb High School - 2863 Kelley Chapel Road, Decatur, GA 30034
The NCAA allows for five official visits and an unlimited number of unofficial visits to colleges and universities. We mention that because the NCAA understands the big decisions you will face when choosing an institute of higher learning. Taking a visit not only helps you compare schools expressing interest in you, but it allows you the opportunity to make an informed decision about what best fits you.
The Georgia Metros organization believes you should be afforded that same opportunity to compare your options for where you'll be playing for the upcoming travel season. We strongly believe the Georgia Metros will help to push you to new heights. The best thing you can do is to come check us out for yourself. When faced with choices, there's no harm in putting yourself in a position to make an unbiased, informed decision.
For those needing overnight accomodations, the Doubletree Hotel at Northlake Mall will be serving as the host hotel. Please let them know you're with the Georgia Metros to reserve the room for the $89 a night rate. Their number is 770-938-1026. I implore you to remember that you have every right to make sure you're putting yourself in the best position to succeed.
We look forward to meeting you!

Spring Recap from our Director - Charles Huddleston
This weekend (April 19th - 21st) we had a terrific showing for all four of our HS Georgia Metros Travel Teams!! The 15 Nike Team brought home a Championship from Boo, defeating two Nike Teams on the road to winning their Gold Medals! The 16 Nike Team won its Pool, defeating the FL Essence and the NY Gouchos, and making it to the Elite Eight of the Gold Division Bracket in the 16 Elite Division at Boo. (There were three 16 Divisions at Boo, featuring a total 96 16 Year Old Teams from all over the US and Canada, and 22 of the 23 Nike Girls Elite Youth (GEY) Programs in the US were there.) The 16 Premier Team placed Second at the Nike Super 100 Showcase in Atlanta, competing against Travel Teams from Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee. And, the 14 Nike Team upset the Philly Belles (which featured one of the top-ranked Freshmen in the country) and Central Florida Elite, both Nike Programs while finishing second in their pool after losing the head to head tie-breaker.
