TRY-OUTS/PRACTICE
BEGINS:
From
Tuesday, July 15th through Friday, July 18th we will
practice from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at the Southeast YMCA on Six-Mile Lane.
From
July 21st through August 1st, Monday through Friday, we
will practice twice a day. First
in the morning
from 8:30-9:30 a.m. on the track at Seneca’s soccer (football) field or on
the field hockey field, and in the evening from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at the YMCA.
Morning practice will be primarily, but not exclusively, conditioning
(to know what to expect from morning conditioning, go to our CONDITIONING link).
Evening practice is for training and playing with the ball.
Also,
the coaches are always happy to stay after practice for an extra twenty
minutes or so to help players who want to spend a little more time shooting,
dribbling, passing, or simply playing.
WHAT
YOU MUST HAVE BEFORE YOU TRY-OUT:
Before
you will be allowed to do anything soccer-related, you must have . . .

A
completed physical examination and parent permission form. You
must use the form provided by the school.
Have the medical history and parent permission sections of the form
filled-out, signed, and notarized

WHAT
TO BRING TO PRACTICE:
morning practice

own water

cleats
evening practice
·
your
own water
·
cleats
·
shin
guards
·
a
ball (if you have one)
If
you’ve never played before and don’t have shin guards, you can buy an inexpensive pair at
places like K-Mart or Target and of course at any sports store.
These are necessary for safety reasons.
However, if you do not already have a pair of cleats, I recommend
waiting to buy them until you’re sure you’ve made the team.
