Team Tryouts:
A series of tryouts will be held in early April 2014 to select a group of about 18 players for the final team. All PJPII students in grades six, seven, and eight can tryout for the 2014 team. All tryouts will take place indoor at the Pope John Paul II School gym. The tryouts will take place after school from 3:15 pm to 4:45 pm, and it is important that players attend all tryouts to be considered for the team.
There will be three tryouts before final selections are made:
-
Tryouts 1 and 2: All players will complete a skills circuit (passing, shooting, dribbling tests) and participate in games.
-
Tryout 3: The top 22 players will be invited to participate in a final training session. After different drills and excercises, a final roster will be posted on the website.
Players must bring their shin pads and soccer shoes (indoor) to practice. The coaches thank you in advance for your participation in the 2014 team tryouts!
