• All Squirt C, PeeWee B, Bantam B Players that
  only intend on playing for those teams need to
  attend the Squirt B/C, PeeWee A/B Bantam A/B
  tryout. This means that all travel players at
  least need to be at the 2nd round of tryouts for
  their age division.
• There will not be a re-tryout fee this year.
  There does need to be some thought into what team
  a player tries out for. Cuts may be made the 1st
  day of a given tryout in situations that demand
  we get down to a workable number of participants
  to conduct fair tryout process.
