General Information about Boys Soccer 2022-23

Boys Soccer is a winter sport, with the season running from mid-November – February/March.

Tryouts are mandatory for interested players, and cuts are made when there are more players than spots. Teams carry up to 28 players, with no guarantee of playing time.

Teams practice 2-3 times a week, and play games 1-2 times a week. Training and games are held during the school week, Mon-Fri, although teams may participate in some tournaments that include weekend play.

Information is shared via email, social media, and TeamSnap. Sign up for our mailing list to receive updates about tryouts and the program.

NOTICE: The freshman tryouts next week on Tuesday 11/12, Wednesday 11/13, and Friday 11/15 have been shifted 15 minutes earlier to a 3:45pm start to allow more time for the coaches to see the players. Please make your way as quickly as possible after school from SDA to Oak Crest in order to get checked in so you can be there when tryouts start. See the main tryouts post for complete information.
