How Many Evals should my Child Attend?
There are multiple dates scheduled for each age group. A player MUST participate in at least 1 eval session to be considered for the team they are trying out for. It is recommended that players attend multiple sessions for coaches and evaluators to get a better look at them.
If an A team call back is needed, it will be done on 2/8 or 2/9 for the G56 and G78 levels. If teams are formed by the 3rd session, the follow on dates will be used for team practices.
Which Evals should my Child Attend?
All players within an age group will attend the same evals. Players will go through the same set of drills/stations to be evaluated.
Players will be grouped by similar skill/exerpience.
What should my child expect at the evaluations?
Players will participate in a series of drills that focus on various skills the coaches are evaluating against. Skills include stick skills, shooting, passing, catching, cradling, footwork, agility, speed, endurance, game awareness, how to work with teammates, working in short sided situations, offense, defense, competitiveness, coachability, etc.
Players that are new to lacrosse will participate in drills that will introduce them to the sport.
What if my child does not make the team?
All players will be placed on a team.
The evaluations allow the coaches to assess the players and their skills, so they are placed on the appropriate level team. If your child does not make the A team, they should attend the B team evals for the UB team. If your child does not make the UB team, then they will be placed on the LB team.
Sometimes, in an age group with large numbers, A and UB team evaluations can be competitive. Some player may end up on a lower team than expected.
What are the different team levels?
Dulles South provides various levels of play so each player can have fun, play in a competitive environment, and learn lacrosse. For G78, G56, and G34 we offer teams at the A, UB, and LB level.
· A level teams are our most competitive teams. Players tend to have more than 1 years of experience. Their schedule is more demanding, practicing 3 times per week plus games on Sunday.
· UB level teams are our team which are still competitive, but less schedule intensive with 2 practices per week plus games on Sunday. Players on our UB teams have 1 or more years’ experience.
· LB level teams tend to be for our new players, and players with 1 to 2 years’ experience. Teams practice 2 times per week plus games on Sundays.
*** Note: Players experience per team level is a general guideline, but does not mean a player will be restricted to play at a certain level based on their years’ experience. Team placement will be based on skill level, and player evaluations.
G34 offers teams at G34 FF (Full Field) and G34 MF (Modified Field)
· The G34 FF is played on a full field and has teams fielded in A, UB, and LB levels. Teams will practice 2 - 3 times per week plus games on Sunday.
· G34 MF is played on a modified field and has teams fielded in A, UB, and LB levels.
Our preseason schedule consists of clinics, evaluation sessions to help make teams, and team practices leading up until the regular practice schedule starts in March.
