Come prepared
What do I need for tryouts?
Players should arrive cleared, dressed to participate, and physically ready for a competitive soccer session.
1
Valid physical and complete packet
A player cannot try out without an approved physical and completed athletic packet. Open the English packet.
2
Running shoes
Wear secure athletic shoes suitable for running. Cleats are helpful but are not required until a player makes the team.

Weather-appropriate athletic clothes
Dress in layers that allow full movement. Avoid jeans or anything restrictive or unsafe for running.

Shin guards are helpful
Shin guards and soccer socks are useful during tryouts, but players do not need to buy them before making the team.

Hair secured; jewelry removed
Keep hair out of the face. Remove earrings, necklaces, watches, bracelets, and other jewelry before participating.

Arrive ready to begin
Be on time, dressed, and ready to participate. Players should be prepared to listen, compete, and respond positively to coaching.

Required personal medication
Bring any prescribed emergency medication you are required to keep with you, such as an inhaler, and follow school procedures.
