Tryouts will be led by Raiders Head Coach James Fuller and his staff. Coach Fuller led the Raiders to back-to-back conference championships in 2012-2013. The cost to try out is $50 per person in advance online and $55 the day of camp. Payments made in person may be made with credit card, cash or money order – no checks will be accepted.

Participants must be 18 years of age and able to provide proof of birth date. This is a professional tryout and participants will no longer be eligible to participate in NCAA sanctioned football should they participate in testing.
The tryouts will be open to the public. More details on the fan experience will be released at a later date. Prospective players who need more information should contact the Raiders’ office at (804) 780-4970 x141 or [email protected].
