2012-2013 Tryout Schedule

Players MUST tryout with their age group! Any decision to have players ‘age up’ is done after tryouts. NO EXCEPTIONS. So a U11 player hoping to play U12 still must attend tryouts from 6-7PM. If your child cannot make both nights of tryouts, have them attend the one they can and then attend one night of makeups. If you can’t make either tryout day, attend one or both nights of makeups. If you can’t make any of the dates, contact our Director of Travel to arrange an alternative tryout.

You can pre-register online or register at the fields up to 30 minutes before your tryout starts – fill out this Tryout Registration Form ahead of time if you can’t register online. Players attending tryouts need to bring water, shin guards, cleats, and a properly inflated soccer ball. If your child cannot attend tryouts as scheduled, they should attend a supplemental tryout session instead. (We recommend attending two sessions total, but one session is often enough)

We plan to start making calls to selected players by June 4th and will publish the rosters by June 18th
Some area leagues may try to pressure you into accepting a slot within 24 hours if you tryout there. There is nothing we can do about this and we’ve rarely seen it enforced where they give your spot to someone else if you wait a few days to get our results. But if you pay the deposit there and decide to play here, they will likely not give you your money back. So PLEASE resist the pressure so you can make the decision that is best for your and your child! We believe all players should be free to tryout in multiple places and choose the team that is the best fit for them.
