What to Bring:
Assesment Composition: The assesment will be 95% competition-based to assess how players perform in game-like situations (1-on-1, 2-on-2, 3-on-3, 4-on-4, advantage/disadvantage situations, and 5-on-5). Skills evaluated during competitions include:
Entrance into Edgewood: All participants and parents/guardians are to enter and exit the building through the Alumni Hall Entrance (Old Commons Entrance off the large parking lot).
Check-In Procedure: Check-In will occur in Alumni Hall upon entrance at the first table. Players will be assigned a practice jersey with a number for the day. At the end of the tryout, players will turn in their practice jerseys before leaving the gym.
Uniform Confirmation Table: All players must verify their uniform needs for the upcoming season at the Uniform table. Players will sign off that they do not need a uniform or will get fitted for one.
Uniform sizing kits will be available. and it is important that returning players verify that their last year's uniform fits. If they do not fit, they can find someone at the tryout in need of that size and get compensated by that person or donate them back to the program.
Parent/Guardian Meeting: Parent/guardian meetings will occur once all participants have been checked in. This will take place in Alumni Hall.
Payment for the program will be collected once the teams are created.
Once the player has been assigned to a team we will then ask for payment as a form of commitment to the program this year. Payment will be collected via our webpage and team management site.
This year tentative schedule will be as follows:
September / October we will finalize and create all the teams. We will also start skill and speed sessions at Edgewood Highschool and possibly IPT.
October / November - Teams will begin to practice
November / December Tournaments / Game Play will begin
Feb / March Season Ends
