Tryout information and future dates (updated)

Although we still do not have a complete game schedule, we can update many of the preseason responsibilities below.

Tryouts begin Monday, August 21st. You should bring soccer shoes, shin guards, running shoes, water, and sunblock to each day of tryouts. Please do not forget your running shoes. We will likely run ‘The Hill’ (Skyline to Discovery and back) on one of the days of tryout. Yes, your times will matter.

If you played for Varsity, Junior Varsity or JVC last season (OR IF you are a Junior or Senior new to our program), your tryout begins at 11am on August 21st and runs until 1pm. If you are a Frosh or Soph, your tryout runs 1pm – 3pm.

Show up a half hour prior to your session start time to sign in, collect your tryout jersey, and help with field setup.

At the end of sessions on Monday, players will be informed in person if they should return for a second session that runs from 3pm-5pm on Monday. Players invited to the Varsity pool are not guaranteed a spot on Varsity (or JV), but should show their best.

Tuesday, August 22nd – Tryouts will be later: 4-6 JV Pool; 6-8 Varsity Pool. Players who show well may be asked to return for the later session.

Wednesday, August 23rd – 4-6 JV Pool; 6-8 Varsity Pool. Roster invitations posted by 9pm.
