Select Team Evaluation Responsibilities

This page is meant as a guide for the May select team tryouts.   This information was reviewed with parents at the select team orientation in April.

If you have any questions on the document, please contact Doreen Falkowski.

PLAYERS

• Bring plenty of water
• Wear shin guards
• Wear cleats
• Plain shirt (no club insignia or last name)
• Attend at least 1 of the 2 evaluation nights
• Will have a team to play on whether select or recreational

PARENTS

• Register your child before 5/11 and check off the "Yes" box for the question "will this player be attending NYSA try-outs in May?" so we know how many players to expect and therefore, can plan for the # of evaluators.
• Playing up
NYSA supports the playing up policies as outlined by higher authority organizations such as United States Soccer Federation, United States Youth Soccer Association, and MYSA.
NYSA supports a player to play up if he/she:


1. is an "automatic" to the U10A and MTOC(U12A & U14A) team as defined by:
1. U10 - top 6
2. U12 - top 8
3. U14 - top 10
2. has a birth date after the cut off date (7/31) but he/she wants to remain with his/her classmates.

Age Group	Birth date range:
U10	8/1/1997-7/31/1999
U12	8/1/1995-7/31/1997
U14	8/1/1993-7/31/1995

Recreational players also need board permission to play up.

• Show up at the appropriate time. NO earlier than 4:00 for the 1st session and 5:30 for the 2nd session
• Welcome to stay at 135 but NOT on the fields
• If a player is injured and will miss both evaluation nights, submit ( to Doreen Falkowski) a Dr's note and a letter of intent from a parent that the player would like to be considered for a select team, and the player MUST be registered.
• Will be notified the week of 6/25 if his/her child is on a select or recreational team.
