​GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT TRYOUTS

Player tryouts are offered once a year. All current and new players interested in joining a team must attend tryouts. Our objective is to form boys/girls teams per age group starting with U8. Often, there will be an ‘A’ team and a ‘B’ team – SCYSC evaluators select players based on perceived ability. 

Players wishing to participate on a team must pre-register and attend tryouts on the published dates. If the number of players registered for the tryout is equal or less than the roster limit, SCYSC may decide not to hold a tryout. This decision will be made after the registration closing date. 

Players unable to attend a tryout must submit a waiver request in writing to Luke Burgess, our Competitive Director, no later than 7 days prior to the start of tryouts. Waiver requests must include reason for not attending the tryout.  Email Luke here.

Player selection is based on the following:

• Performance from the on-field evaluations at tryouts.
• Coach evaluations conducted by SCYSC Head Coaches from prior seasons.
• Previous game and training performances if such data exists.

This information will be used to place players on teams that will best fit their current and expected development.
