Q and A for all player
Tryouts? We do not hold tryouts. Anybody who has the want and desire to be on this team will be on the team.
Playing time? Just because you're on the team does not guarantee you playing time. We are in this to win and coaches play the players who give us the best chance to win.
Insurance? The team does not provide insurance for it players. You will be asked to sign a waiver at the first practice releasing the team, league, and coaches of liability if you get hurt. All players are highly encouraged to have injury insurance before attending any practice with the team.
Pay to play? Yes all players must pay a fee in order to be on the team. It is very expensive to run a league and team at this level and the player have to help offset those cost. This year team/league fee will be $300. A portion of this expense will go to purchase the players uniforms that will be theirs to keep.
Equipment? Players must provide their own equipment. Helmets, shoulder pads, leg pads, and cleats all are the responsibility of the individual players to obtain.
Practice? Practice will start the weekend of January 9th-10th and will be both Saturday and Sunday until the start of the season on March 20th. Practices start at 3pm and last 2 1/2 hours. After the season starts we will only practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting at 6pm. With this amount of practice we are asking for a lot of commitment out of our players. We will not be successful if we cannot practice because of players not showing up. If you cannot sacrifice this much time do not bother coming out for the team.
Games? We have a 10 game regular season. All game will be played on Saturdays. Time of kickoff depends on who and where we are playing that particular week. We will play teams from Olympia, Oak Harbor, Okanogan, Wenatchee, Moses Lake, Hermiston, Spokane and Wenatchee.
Jersey numbers? A list of available can be found on this site under the 2010 players roster. Players will need to put down at least $100 to secure the number of their choice.
