2023-2024 TRYOUTS

BIRTH YEARS 2013-2005

Every year in late May and early June, soccer clubs conduct their annual tryouts (otherwise known as player placement) to place players on a team based on their abilities.

The basis of tryouts is to identify and group players of like ability. It can be a stressful period for players and families. In attempt to combat this, all Rush players will be notified prior to tryouts which team they have a position. All Rush players are required to register and attend tryouts. 

When we look at the athletes, we measure their technical and tactical abilities along with their physical and psychological attributes. A tryout period does not allow us to fully rate players accurately. For these reasons, players will be observed throughout the entire year by their team Head Coach and Director of Coaching at training sessions and games. They will then be consequently placed more accurately within the Rush system. Evaluations will be based on the previously mentioned components in addition to attendance, attitude, team chemistry, and consistency, to name a few.
