Will Everyone Make a Team?
While it is a hope to provide a team for all players to play this fall, we are uncertain at this time if we will be able to do so. In the event we do not place all players, any middle school players will automatically be ineligible to participate per district policy.
AUGUST Date TBD Time TBD @ MVHS - Player & Parent Mandatory Meeting
The following criteria will be used to determine team selection:
* Technical Ability
* Tactical understanding of the game
* Fitness level
* Coach-ability
* Attitude and work ethic
* Respect for teammates, coaching staff, the program and school
* Physical and mental stamina
* Positional and Team needs
* Overall impact on the team
​
2021 team placement does not determine placement for 2022. All players must try out for placement across all levels. Cuts at anyl level are possible. We do our best to place every player and can typically avoid making any cuts. in the events cuts are made, this will be communicated directly to the players based on registration numbers. Movement during the season are possible, but should not be expected. Expect teams of 18-22 players.
​
​
Fitness Testing
Standards
All MVGS players are expected to come in fit and complete the fitness testing outlined during the week of try-outs. Part of the Varsity evaluation, players must be able to demonstrate they are fit within scrimmaging and fitness testing.
​
* Summer Strength Programs will help prepare players for this testing.
Exceptions may be made in unique circumstances related to injury or personal reasons that may prevent a player from completing an expected fitness standard during the week of tryouts. Any excused participation will be communicated between the coach(es) and players directly. All players are expected to complete the testing once determined able to participate and/or cleared of injury. Any Varsity level players that miss the fitness testing requirements must meet them at a time determined by the coaches and athletic training staff.
Rationale
How your fitness level affects you…
Fitness is the foundation of health and athletic performance. Without a solid fitness foundation, you put yourself at risk for over-training, injury and possible burnout during our fall season.
​
Coming in fit will make you feel strong, confident and be more resilient. You will be more prepared to face both the physical and mental challenges that are ahead of us this season. Soccer will be more fun when you are fit.
How your fitness level affects your team…
Coming into training camp unfit, instantly puts you a step behind your fit teammates on the field. It will affect your ability to play the game at the highest level. This in turn affects your team. As a team we value hard work done selflessly for each other.
Embracing this requires you to do the work this summer to make sure that you are ready to help your team. Your fitness level reflects your commitment level to your team.
