Tryouts for the 2024 high school soccer season will be held on August 12th, 13th and 14th. If needed, they may also be extended to also take place on August 15th. All players and parents need to be aware of everything below in order to be 100% ready to go!
Any players who want to participate in tryouts must:
#1) complete the athletic participation survey that will be sent to the inbox of all BHS students through Infinite Campus… you must select BOYS SOCCER on the list of potential sports/activities. Just FYI – last summer, this was not available to student athletes until July.
AND…
#2) all athletes must have a current physical examination form on file. The physical exam form is available here (LINK)
Players will need to bring their soccer items (cleats, shin guards, and a soccer ball) to every session. For the first day, players also need to bring running shoes. We also ask that all players bring their own water every day.
The TENTATIVE schedule for our tryouts will be:
Monday, August 12th — 7:30-11:00am
All players will meet at the BHS Stadium at 7:30am. We will hold a meeting to welcome and check in all players, introduce our coaching staff, and then explain the tryout process and the schedule for the week. When those things are completed, players will then complete a 2-mile fitness run on the track. (Varsity players are expected to complete the run in under 13 minutes.) All players need to bring running shoes so that they can run on the track. When the 2 mile run has been completed, players looking to make the varsity team will remain in the stadium. Players trying out for our freshman and JV teams will walk out to the FOD soccer fields. Tryout sessions will be held for all players until 11:00am.
Tuesday, August 13th — 8:00-11:00am
Any players trying out for a the freshman, JV1 or JV2 levels — your session will take place at FOD.
Any players trying out for varsity, that session will be in the stadium.
If you need to run the 2-mile run, you should arrive by 7:30am.
Wednesday, August 14th — 8:00-11:00am
Any players trying out for a the freshman, JV1 or JV2 levels — your session will take place at FOD.
Any players trying out for varsity, that session will be in the stadium.
If you need to run the 2-mile run, you should arrive by 7:30am.
Please be aware that even though we plan to announce teams on August 14th, we will start practices on the 15th and will have practices six days per week (Monday-Saturday) throughout the entire season. Even though school does not begin until August 20th, we will have practices everyday (even before school begins).
We hope this information helps everyone be fully aware and ready for tryouts. If you have any questions, please feel free to email Coach Steib at ssteib@barrington220.org
