We are very excited to announce PlayMetrics, our new all in one registration and communications software platform. PlayMetrics reduces the applications you use to interact and communicate with our club and your teams. Using the PlayMetrics app on your mobile phone, you can now register and communicate with us, taking our club communication and organization to the next level.
Information on how exactly to register will be shared first week of October 2023.
Questions about using PlayMetrics? Click here for a quick video tutorial. The help articles below offer instructions as you start using the system:
Register for tryouts to be considered for team placement. Families unable to attend should also complete the Tryout Absence Form.
Not being able to attend tryouts may affect your team placement. Our professional staff will do their best to find proper placement for those unable to attend. We will utilize Technical Director observational notes made throughout the year to do so (current members).
We will not have alternative dates/times to make up this event
Register for tryouts to be considered for team placement. Players should do their very best to attend both days if possible. Families unable to attend should also complete the Tryout Absence Form. The evaluations will be based on the date attended as well as Technical Director observational notes made through the year (current members).
You will need to bring your tryout shirt (provided at check-in), water, shin guards, socks, and cleats.
Players will be put into small-sided games and evaluated in different categories by 4-6 evaluators, along with our professional staff. Key categories include, but not limited to, dribbling (1v1) & ball control, passing/receiving, shooting/finishing, spatial awareness, and level of engagement. Goalkeepers U12+ will be assessed in a 'GK Only' group with our GK Staff for the first portion of each day, before being placed in net for the small-sided games with field-players.
Trying out for an older age group is only allowed for U11+ age groups (i.e. earliest example - U11 players trying out for U12). These scenarios are not common and will be approved by our professional staff based on what is best for the players' development. Generally, playing up an age group is only considered for players performing at the top or above the level of their entire age group.
LSC believes in the holistic approach for player development and recognizes the value of having multi-sport athletes in our programs. Players are expected to prioritize soccer during the main "soccer months" of Fall/Spring/Summer. Our coaches/directors work with families to help accommodate winter sport schedules and expect up front communication with your coach to avoid conflicts.
LSC does it's best to find a team for all players. Based on number of registrants and available teams, this can sometimes not work out. Any player without a team will be placed on a waitlist. You will receive information regarding the waitlist if you are to be added to it.
A team offer will be communicated via email for the 23/24 seasons. No rosters will be posted to the website. All team placements are final and not eligible for discussion. No evaluation scores or notes will be shared. Families will have 48 hours to accept/decline their position.
Our goal with tiered teams is to help provide appropriately challenging environments for all players. We will do our best to place players on teams where they are surrounded by others of similar ability.
There will be no contesting or protesting of team placements of any player in any age group.
The club will not engage in any discussions or debate on team placement or how tryouts and teamformations are conducted.
Evaluators' scores from team formations and players' body of work provided by the most recent team coach and Age Group Director are confidential and will not be shared. Players looking for feedback should reference their end-of-season coach feedback.
