Tryout Registration
Beginning Friday, April 4th , our on-line registration system will be available for your use. Please note that all players should register on-line, in advance AND that on-line regisration will close 48 hours prior to the start of the first tryout session for each particular age group/gender.
There is a $25 fee for participating in the tryouts if the player registers on-line. A $40 fee will be charged to those players who don't register on-line and who register at the field instead. Please note that the tryout fee helps to offset the cost of the tryouts, and includes a numbered tryout participant t-shirt.
Special Note for Players with August Birthdates: Players with August birthdates have the opportunity to choose whether to play with their grade or with their age group (based on date ranges provided by the Illinois state soccer association).
Important Information for All Players
Players should plan to arrive early to their tryout sessions - to leave sufficient time to complete the Check-In process and warm up. On-field Registration and Check-In tables will be open 30 minutes before and close 10 minutes prior to the start of each tryout session.
Players wishing to tryout as a designated team goalie, must indicate that they are interested when they register at the field - to be given consideration as a goalie. Players who tryout for and accept a goalie position commit in advance to the following: U9 & U10 - minimum 25% of game in goal; U11 & U12 - minimum of 50% of game in goal; U13 and older - 100% of game in goal. U9 to U12 goalies meeting the above will be given up to 25% more field playing time for the rest of that game relative to other teammates.
Tryout participants should wear shin guards and bring a water bottle and a ball.
Players will be allowed to participate during the tryouts without wearing protective eye wear – however all players will be required to wear protective eye wear during the regular season (if applicable).
Birth Certificate
All players must provide a copy of their birth certificate to verify age, as required by the Illinois Youth Soccer Association. The birth certificate can be scanned and downloaded during the registration process or a copy must be provided at registration. A copy of each player's birth certificate will be kept on file in a secure location.
Player Pass Photo
All players must provide a photo. This is the photo that will be on the league player pass. This photo will also assist coaches and staff during tryouts and must be uploaded during online tryout registration. There are league requirements for the composition of the photo, which should be comparable to a passport photo.
