• Practices: Players need to arrive at least 15 minutes early and be ready to practice when it is your time to start. Practices are generally 1 hour and 30 minutes. Some coaches require their players to come in 30 minutes early for conditioning and player specific training. Generally, practices are on Sunday afternoons at Silver Creek High School, New Albany High School, or Hazelwood Middle School and players will also practice one day during the week. After teams are picked a practice schedule will be available.

• We do not like to cut players from our program. However, with a limited amount of training facilities we can only accommodate 20 teams. If necessary, we will have to make cuts based on the tryouts and from the information attained from the coaching staff. As a staff, we will create an alternate list as sometimes openings do come available.

• Conflicts: If you participate in winter sports you can expect to have some conflicts. It will be necessary to share this information with us before being placed on a team and to communicate with your coach so that preparations can be made to have a competitive team ready for each tournament. We understand that school sports take priority over club and we would like the players to have the opportunity to do both.
