2022/23 Tryouts

To participate in NWU tryouts players need to register online by creating an account through the information found in our tryout page. Players need to register 1 hour before tryouts start for their age group, but we will accept walk ons if you miss this deadline. Each age group hosts 2 tryouts, so we encourage you to make both!

Plan to arrive 30 minutes before the tryout starts, and you will need to bring confirmation and check in at the Skagit Park pavilion at the south side of Skagit River Park playfields. Also bring water and appropriate clothing, shinguards are manditory. NWU players are to wear non branded playing clothes. Here you will be given a jersey with a number. This jersey number is how coaches identify you throughout the process, and you will the same jersey on both days.

Each age groups head coaches will introduce themselves to the group and our club trainers will then deliver tryouts while the head coaches evaluate. Players will complete a ball mastery warm up, followed by small sided 1v1 and 2v2 attacking practices. This will then progress to small sided games and age format games to finish. Tryouts last for 90 minutes.

Following tryouts the coaches will meet and place players onto teams, the number of teams depend on the number of players available to each age group. Players will receive a phone call offering a spot on a team within 48 hours of tryout as well as jersey numbers posted on our results page. Players will have 24 hours to accept a position on respective team, or be offered a number of different programs our club has to offer.
