Scholarships: UC Santa Barbara Roller Hockey will be offering a few scholarships opportunities during the upcoming season. These grants will be available on a need basis, requiring the recipient to verify their financial aid eligibility through the Financial Aid Office (located at the SAAB building).
The application process will occur during Fall Quarter. Successful applicants will receive their grants for the Winter Quarter. In addition to the amount of the award offered, team dues for the Winter will be waived. UCSB Roller Hockey cannot and will not offer a "full ride" to any prospective or current players - these scholarships are meant to alleviate some of the costs of being a college student, not to put a roller hockey player through school.
Grants will be awarded on three criteria: 1) verification of financial aid elibility 2) an interview with club officers, the Sport Clubs Coordinator and Recreational Sport's Director 3) satisfaction of club policies (ie, attendance at practices, games, etc).

Tryouts: UCSB Roller Hockey holds formal tryouts once a year during September. Tryouts usually occur one week after freshmen are allowed to move into university affiliated housing -
this means you must have your gear here in the Fall. A small, one time fee no higher than $20 will be charged for the multiple day tryout. A list of call backs will be compiled at the end of the "official" tryout weekend, and these call backs will be invited to regular season practice until our teams are chosen.
Additionally, for prospective players who missed the official tryout or who transferred after the Fall, individual evaluations will be available at any time. Please
contact us to schedule an individual tryout.
