TRYOUT GUIDELINES:
All candidates must meet academic requirements from the FALL Semester 2013Must Pass 3 of 4 Classes and be in attendance 81 Class Days
Any eligible player grades 9-12 may be selected for the Varsity Squad,
however only 9th and 10th graders may partcipate on the JV Team.
Fairness in the team selection process is the single
most important aspect. Players are not re-selected to a Varsity or JV team postion merely based upon participation
the previous year. All candidates must tryout again. The primary objective
is to select the best and most dedicated soccer players. Players who raised the level of their soccer play during the summer,
and fall seasons are players who will certainly have an advantage.
Everyone, regardless of class, will tryout on the same level playing
field, there is no more important goal than "fairness" in the overall team selection process.
Important Criteria In The Selection Process:
Overall Cardio and Physical Fitness: Players must come to the tryouts
in top cardio and physical condition. The tryouts are not a time to try and get into shape.
***************************************
For Returning Candidates: Your offensive and defensive technical
and tactical skill will be evaluated in terms of your improvement from last season. It
is always easy to spot players who worked hard during the off season from players who were complacent and show no real
signs of improved play.
For New Players To The Program: You will be given every opportunity
during the tryout process to provide the coaching staff with an understanding of your soccer playing level. Your offensive
and defensive technical and tactical play will be as fairly evaluated as possible.
Mental Toughness: Self confidence, grit, determination and
a never give up attitude are certainly a part of the tryout process.
Team Players: No matter how talented a
player is ..he can do very little without his teammates. Players who show themselves as contributing postively
to team chemistry are players any program seeks to have.
Coachability: Players should show that they have an open mind for
learning and will follow the desired goals and tactics of our 2013 team.
2013 Tryouts will be very competitive!!
BEST WISHES FOR SUCCESS TO EVERYONE !
