Pick your trial

Select your state and age group, then choose the date and time that suits. Age groups are the player’s current school year— the year they’re in right now, not the year they’d be on tour.

From families who’ve done it

Don’t just take our word.

  • Right from the start with registration, throughout the trials, receiving trial performance feedback, and selection details, all through to the preparation of departure; the experience with AUSA was just so professional, organised, clear and personally designed.

    Evan & Cathy Mills

  • The results from the tour far exceeded our expectations. From being showcased at one tournament our son received a number of division one scholarship offers.

    Jenelle & Pero Cameron

  • Emma had been wondering about US college for a while and signed up for AUSA's AAU tour this year. The expert and candid advice and support she received from AUSA coaches over many months, about the pros and cons of US college, made all the difference.

Before you register

Trials, answered.

Am I committed to anything by coming to trials?
No. Attending trials involves no commitment. Selected players are given several weeks to decide before spots are offered to other candidates.
What if my city isn't listed or I can't attend a trial?
Alternative measures (highlight tape, playing level, age, raw workout footage) will be taken into consideration for players unable to attend in-person trials.
What happens after the trials?
Selected players receive notification and can schedule a call with our staff. Successful participants then sign on and provide an initial deposit to reserve their position on the tour.
What if I don't get selected for a tour?
We offer guidance to unselected players and can recommend alternative programs to support their college basketball aspirations.
How are teams formed once players are selected?
We put each player on the team that best matches their level and gives them the strongest opportunity to be successful in the United States. Final rosters are confirmed at the pre-departure camp before we fly.
