Players must be registered to play in SYS for the Fall 2010 season prior to participating in tryouts. Registration information and forms can be found on the SYS web site: www.witchcitysoccer.org
We strongly encourage players to register prior to their scheduled session. Players who have registered prior to their scheduled session should arrive at 5:45pm, ready to play.
Players who register onsite must arrive by 5:15pm. To register, players must provide a photo, proof of birth, and appropriate payment. Onsite registrations are subjec Please consult the web site for specific requirements.
Player ratings from tryouts, along with assessments from current coaches and age group directors, are used to assign players to teams that will play at levels that are developmentally appropriate for the individual players. Tryouts enable Salem Youth Soccer to create and submit team rosters for play in the Essex County Youth Soccer Association, so it is very important for all players who wish to play to register and participate in tryouts. Tryouts are also an important part of the development of the player, and can be fun as well as instructive.
If you have any questions please contact Steve Palmer (or 978 766 0973) or your player’s current coach.
