Tryout Procedures
TRYOUT PROCEDURES
- Check in:
- Please allow adequate time for check-in ahead of your tryout – check-in will be available 60 minutes prior to open tryouts
- All parents/guardians (and other siblings/spectators) must remain with/in their vehicles throughout the tryout
- No parents/guardians may accompany players to the check-in process
- In the event of an injury the Technical Director will utilize the emergency contact information provided during registration to contact the parent/guardian and provide them with directions on where to go to connect with their player
- After checking in at the table and receiving their number, players will select their t-shirt size at the shirt station before going to the field
- Tryouts:
- Players will bring their water and bag to the field no more than 10 minutes prior to their scheduled start time
- Players should bring their own ball – this should be properly inflated
- While pinnies may be used – all players should bring a white shirt in the event of color conflicts during tryouts (alternating red/gold shirts will be given out at check-in)
- Players should bring their issued shirt and tryout number to ALL tryouts (in addition to their own white shirt)

Callback Tryout Schedule and Location Information
We will post lists of players invited to callback tryouts below within 48 hours of the last open tryout for each age group. There will NOT be any email notification of callback lists.
While missing a call-back tryout date does not eliminate a player from consideration, increased visibility and tryout data does enhance the staff's ability to provide a more accurate assessment of each player. Please notify us via email if you will not be able to attend your scheduled callback tryout.
