It's time to start getting excited about soccer and the 2010 spring season. Coach Harkey plans on a very competitive tryout so it's time to start getting in shape NOW! Indoor soccer begins the weekend of January 16. There will be an opportunity for a varsity team camp at WMU the first week of March. Please contact Mr. Dubois if you are interested.
Check out the spring season schedule on the schedule page.
Optional Winter Workouts
Dates: January 31 to March 10
Days: Sundays 5:00 - 7:00pm, Thursdays 2:45 - 3:30pm
Location: Sundays at the high school gym, Thursdays at the high school weight room.
Optional Individual Workouts
Under MHSAA rules, coaches may work with up to 3 players at one time during the off season. These workouts will consist of improving your ball skills. Please contact Coach Harkey if interested.
***Participation or non-participation in the optional workouts has no affect on whether anyone makes or does not make the teams.
Tryouts
Dates: March 15-17
Days: Monday - Wednesday
Time: 3:00 - 5:30pm
Location: Verona Road Fields
All players participating in the tryouts must wear appropriate soccer cleats and shin guards, should bring plenty of water, and since it will be cold, should wear appropriate clothing.
Physicals
In order to participate in the tryouts, all players must have a completed physical card either on file with the athletic office or presented to Coach Harkey prior to tryouts. If you do not have a completed physical card, you will not be allowed to participate, no exceptions.
Properly Equipped
All shin guards that are worn in an MHSAA game environment must have a state seal of approval. Be sure when you purchase new shin guards that they have this seal.
Under a new MHSAA rule the head coach is now responsible to make sure that all players are properly equipped. The referees will no longer call the players together for a pre-game inspection. Properly equipped means regulation soccer cleats, shin guards, no jewelry or hair clips, and shirts tucked in. If a player is in violation of the properly equipped requirements then the head coach will receive a yellow card.
