Winter Academy Team tryouts are for any player interested in our Winter Academy Team Program. The Academy Teams are designed for players that are interested in taking their game to the next level. Players will undergo a 2 day tryout. The first day, players will do skill work and play, the 2nd day of tryouts will be all playing. This is our way to ensure all players are placed in the correct Academy Teams so they are getting taught exactly what they need to help advance their development. This is open to all players!

OVERVIEW

• ALL players must attend the 2 day tryout
• If players miss one day of tryouts, their evaluation will be based on the day the attended. 
• Not all players who tryout make a team 
• We offer multiple teams at each grade level 
• Girls Practice Starts Nov. 1st - Boys start Oct. 30th

• Generally boys will practice on M/W and girls will practice on T/Thr. (Specific times will be given after tryouts)
