This year, we are running tryouts by position rather than by age group (except for the 11U and 12U athletes) to give every athlete the best opportunity to be evaluated. Grouping athletes with others who play the same position allows our coaches to focus on the specific skills, movement patterns, and game situations that are most important for each role. This format also creates more meaningful comparisons and helps us build balanced, competitive teams that are the best fit for every athlete.

We understand that some athletes may play more than one position. However, we ask each athlete to attend only one tryout. Our coaches will be able to evaluate each athlete’s skills and potential across positions during that single session.

All tryouts will be held at FTC | 9733 Kent Street, Elk Grove CA

Girls Commitment Night for the October tryout

• Time TBD

It is high recommended and preferred, that players tryout with their own age group. This is the most accurate way for our coaches to designate players to the right teams based off of skill in comparison with their peers that tryout for our club. 

Tryout times are listed above, but please arrive 15-20 minutes prior to the tryout time to get checked in.  

Parents are not allowed in the facility during tryouts.  

It is VERY IMPORTANT to fill out this form right away and let us know of your conflict. 

Please do everything you can to attend the scheduled Tryout Date & Time for your specific age group.  We do understand there are good reasons otherwise so we would like to have every opportunity to try to evaluate you.  

If you cannot make any day of the tryout weekend follow these steps: 

• Attend at least one clinic - but the more you can attend the better. Let us know prior to the clinic that you are attending and need to be evaluated.
• Fill out the form below
• Complete the regular tryout registration (link above) in order to be included in our tryout evaluation.
