  • What to Expect at Tryouts

    • Please arrive 30 minutes before your  tryout time to get checked-in.
    • Make sure you have registered your player(s) online prior to arrival.   
    • Tryouts will begin right on time to keep with the busy schedule.
  • What Do I Bring?

    • Bring a soccer ball.
    • Wear your cleats and shin guards.
    • Bring a large water bottle and sunscreen.
    • Bring an extra pair of shoes or slides to change into after tryouts are over.
    • Returning FC players wear your practice uniform kit.
  • Tryout Etiquette

    Questions about the club, team and coaching staff are welcome.  But, please direct all questions to the admin staff at check-in or wait until after the session has concluded.  Coaches and Directors will have very little time as they will be on the field running tryouts. We have a very tight schedule and coaches will be focused on evaluating each player to ensure proper placement on FC teams.


    Do NOT ask your coach for a decision during tryouts or regarding other players.  All player placement decisions will be communicated after the conclusion of tryouts via Playmetrics.  Parents and players will not have to wait too long as decisions are made within 24 hours.    


    Parents are welcome to stay and watch, but we ask that you be respectful of the coaches and staff. Please sit on the bleachers away from the field to ensure players have their own tryout experience.  Do not interfere with the tryout process, and do not address your player while they are with their group.

  • After Tryouts & Placement

    All players go through an extensive evaluation process.  Coaches make recommendations with Directors making the final decision.  This ensures that each player has had multiple opportunities to be seen and decisions align with which team will most benefit that player's development.


    All placement decisions will be made within 24 hours of the conclusion of tryouts.  Players will be invited to their team via Playmetrics.  In addition, coaches will contact each player individually either through phone, text or email to welcome them to their team for the 2024 soccer year.


    Once the invite has been accepted, parents will be given additional information regarding setting up a payment plan, submitting player forms, and ordering uniforms.  All other questions from this point forward should be directed to your team coach.  They will be able to assist you with team information and help prepare you for the upcoming soccer year!
