  • Tryout Process
    • We have 23 spots available for 7^th and 8^th Graders
    • We plan on not only picking student athletes who will put us in the best position to win, but will represent J.L. Long with integrity and class on and off the field
    • If you have bad grades / poor behavior in the class, that could affect whether you are selected or not
    • After each day of tryouts, a roster of “cuts” will be posted in the school (outside the gym) as well as on a google classroom I will create for Soccer. If your name is on the list, you move on to the next day of tryouts.  If your name is not on the list, keep working hard and better luck next year
    • Just because you made the team last year does not mean you automatically make it this year!!
  • Levels of Fitness and skills
    • Coaches are looking for players that are fit enough to run 2 miles easily without stopping. Speed and agility are favored over size and strength.  The more ball control / skills you have, the better.  And most importantly, the ability to communicate on and off the ball!
  • I will post a google form for you to fill out your name, ID number, Grade, and Position you play.
  • Q&A
