Travel Tryout FAQ and Information

FAQ: TRAVEL PLAYER EVAL & TEAM PLACEMENT (TRYOUT)

Q: Who needs to attend the in-person tryouts?

A: ALL players (U9 to U19). If a player is unable to attend the in-person tryouts portion of Team Placement, they still need to be registered for the Player Evaluation and Team Placement to be placed on a team. In limited cases there may be no in-person tryouts, if so each player still must register to be placed on a team. The Coaching Director will contact the age group directly if in-person tryouts are not needed.

Q: What is included in the Player Evaluation and Team Placement (Tryout) registration price?

A: Tryout dry fit jersey, licensed coaches/trainers overseeing player evaluation, and administrative/registration fees for team placement.

Q: Do we need to attend in-person tryouts and do we need to attend both sessions?

A: Yes. All players will need to register for Player Evaluation and Team Placement. If a player cannot attend the in-person try out dates, they will need to contact the Director of Coaching. Please schedule accordingly. Tryouts capture a better snapshot of the player from a different evaluator and will help in placement.

Q: What should I bring?

A: Bring the same equipment you would bring to a game or practice. Make sure you are prepared for the weather. Bring plenty of water.

Q: When should I arrive?

A: Please arrive about 30 minutes prior to the listed start time. This will allow the players time to check in and warm up. Tryouts will start on time.

Q: Can I watch the in-person tryouts?

A: Parents are allowed to stay at the fields, but need to stay at the concession area. Parents are not allowed to be by the fields their players are trying out on.

Q: Can you tell me the evaluation criteria so I can help my child improve?

A: No. We use 5 categories to evaluate the players. All relating to the game of soccer. When players know how they are being evaluated they focus too hard on standing out and lose focus playing the game.

Q: Will the results of the tryouts be posted?

A: Results are posted by initial of player and tryout jersey number. Any player that may have a concern about their placement may contact the Director of Coaching or the Travel Director.
