Player Placement/Annual Tryouts
Tryouts are held each year to aid in the formation of all teams. Tryouts are held in May, registration opens in early Spring. Players are evaluated on the field by the coaching staff and directors over the course of 3-4 days. Using the results of these tryouts – in conjunction with coach evaluations from the previous season – our coaching staff forms teams in each appropriate age group.
Players unable to participate in May tryouts (due to relocation to Brevard County, injury, etc.) may request a supplemental tryout by contacting the Executive director of coaching.
