Tryout Essentials

• Participation Forms: All players should download, fill out, and bring a Tryout Information and Liability Release form to their tryout session.


• Attendance: In order to be properly assessed by the coach, players must arrive on time in proper attire, and with form filled out in advance if possible.


• Attire: Players should be dressed to play in shin guards, appropriate cleats (no baseball cleats permitted), long socks, shorts and a t-shirt.


• Water and Jacket: Please also send water and a jacket in your child's backpack.

Tryout Results

Tryout decisions will be made within a week of the tryout sessions. Each Age Group Coordinator or head age group coach will make individual phone calls to the families of all players invited to join the club. This conversation gives families the opportunity to receive feedback and ask questions.
