Q: What do I Need to Know About Tryouts?

	When you arrive at the field, report to the registration booth for your tryout number and then begin stretching and warm-ups.
	Wear your Spring team jersey and bring your own glove, bat and cleats. If you plan to try out as a catcher, borrow your Spring team's catcher gear.

Q: Do I have to go to tryouts?

Yes, tryouts are mandatory and missing tryouts without making prior arrangements will result in not being placed on a team. If you are unable to make it contact Sandra Carrera (227-7205) or Kent Lister (209-8446).

Practice and game schedules vary by coach and division. Teams generally practice three days a week and play tournaments on the weekends. Most teams will play between 5-7 tournaments. The 8U will likely play 4-5 tournaments.
