GRAND ISLAND SOCCER CLUB TRAVEL TRY-OUTS AND REGISTRATION

 

            Travel try-outs for the Grand Island Soccer Club will take place on Sunday, September 18 and Saturday, September 24 at Veteran’s Park with a Pre-try-out practice on Wednesday, September 7 at Veteran’s Park.

 

The practice will be held from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. on Field #2.  All players are encouraged to attend.  This is a run through of what the actual tryouts will be like.

See chart below for try-out times by age group.

 

            Travel soccer teams play competitive games one evening during the week against clubs from communities from Youngstown to East Aurora.  Weekend tournaments may be entered at each team’s discretion.  The season begins in early May and runs through early August 2006.

 

            Registration is $80.00 to be paid at registration at the Concession Stand Building 30 minutes prior to your try-out.  If you do not make the team, your $80 will be returned.  Once placed on a roster, there will be NO refunds.

 

            There will also be a uniform charge of $50 if you need to purchase a new uniform.

            You are required to attend at least one try-out session.  But you are encouraged to attend both try-out sessions.  2005 Travel players must attend try-outs to be eligible for placement on a 2006 team.

 

            Bring a soccer ball but do not wear a travel uniform.

 

IMPORTANT TRY-OUT INFORMATION

 

The GISC will start a new travel try-out process for the U10 – U14 age groups.  At the try-outs there will be independent evaluators, consisting of experienced coaches and players (not affiliated with that age group).  Only the 1st team will be picked at that time.  This team will be a true 1st team which will play at the highest level possible  After the 1st team coach contacts his players, the 2nd team will be contacted.  If a player chooses not to play on the 1st team, they will not be considered for the 2nd team.  Playing Up will only be allowed with the approval of the independent evaluators.

 

All try-outs are 1 hour 45 minutes with registration 30 minutes prior to your try-out time at the Concession Stand.

 

Players are asked to NOT wear their travel uniform to try-outs.
