Our goal is to assemble a group of young men
at Dunwoody High School that will represent
our school and program with respect, honor,
and integrity on and off the basketball court.
These young men will make the most of the
opportunity by working relentlessly year round
to become the best basketball players and
student athletes they can be.

The maximum points a player can gain from tryouts is 192 points (16
segments and 12 being the top score) and the lowest total would be 0.
First cuts will be posted Wednesday, October 29th at Noon on the door
of the coaches office. Players should check the list during lunch!
Those not making the team might be called back in case of an injury,
academic disqualification, or lack of fall sport participant.
There will be a mandatory meeting for players making the first cut and
their parents at 7:30pm on Thursday, October 30th in the cafeteria.
Please bring your check books.
Those playing fall sports will be given a two morning tryout the
Monday and Tuesday following the last varsity football game of the
season before final rosters are decided.
Each player and parent must sign the Player Code of
Conduct prior to participation in any basketball activities.
Just a reminder that players who are selected for the teams
are expected to be at ALL TEAM EVENTS. No excuses.
Schedule tutoring, doctors, etc around your basketball
commitments.
If you cannot make that commitment, you should not try out
for our basketball program.
We suggest you review the Player Code of Conduct prior to
tryouts. A copy can be found on Coach Dankosky’s website
on the Dunwoody High School homepage.
Making cuts is the hardest part of being a coach. Basketball, being
the most popular sport in the world and having the least number of
players on a roster makes things even more difficult. We developed
this method to be fair to all those trying out.
