· Players arrive 15 minutes prior to tryout to check in
· No SSC apparel is worn
· No parent coaches or SSC parents attend tryouts other than those who've volunteered to chaperone.
· Your child attends both tryouts so we have complete and consistent data from which we form teams. See policy below.
Attendance / Absence Policy:
In order to fully assess and rank all players fairly and objectively, it is critical that all players; new and current, attend both tryout sessions. Excused absences due to injury or illness will be honored with a doctor’s note. Other absences/appeals will be heard by the board.
SSC Head Coach Rankings:
Current players of SSC will be evaluated each week by their Head Coaches, along with our Directors of Coaching, Dave Stapleton and Darren Shimwell, throughout the spring season. This allows the Head Coaches to effectively rank each player within their age group, to help with team placement.
Goalie Only policy:
SSC will permit players to try out as keepers only for 9v9 rosters, and up. Please inform the tryout coordinator or board member chaperoning the tryout that your child would like to try out for goalie. However, it should be noted:
a. All players trying out for goalie will be stack ranked as they will be for field play. All players should also try out as field players. Next year’s team trainers coaching teams 9v9 and up will have the option of selecting goalie only, or a field player, and rotate goalies. b. If the player makes the higher flighted team as a field player as well, he/she is guaranteed the same minimum play time between time in goal, and field play, if desired.
