Tryouts FAQ
Yes, all players must register for tryouts. Registering online prior to 5:00 pm the night before tryouts is highly recommend. Registering online creates accurate player lists for coaching evaluators and makes check-in much smoother for your player on the day of tryouts.

There are a host of reasons a child chooses to play travel soccer. For some, it's competition-based—they want to play on the best team possible to prepare for a future high school and/or college team.
