Additional Tryout Information
The professional coaches will evaluate each player on the following components:
- TECHNICAL: How an action is executed
- TACTICAL: When, Why and Where (on the field) a decision is made
- PHYSICAL: Speed, Power, Agility, Coordination and Endurance
- PSYCHOLOGICAL: Competitiveness, Attitude, Work Rate, Focus, Growth Mindset, Teamwork
- OVERALL PERFORMANCE: Application and impact in the game
Current HTX players are evaluated daily in their training and game environments. Because of the extensive knowledge our coaches gain from working with each player over the course of an entire season, we can accurately project their team placement for next season before tryouts start. All current and returning players should attend tryouts. Their current team may still be participating in league/cup play so players must stay engaged and we need to create a competitive environment to evaluate new players trying out for the program.
It is important for any NEW player(s) who will not be able to attend one or all tryout sessions for their age group to notify us.
First, please register using the button at the top of this page, even if you cannot make it to the scheduled tryout date. Remember, there is no cost to tryout.
Once you have registered, email your desired tryout location stating the following:
- Players full name
- Date of birth
- When you are available to tryouts
One of our staff will then contact you to set up an evaluation at a time which is convenient for you.
