WMU TEAM CAMP rosters and schedules have been handed out to participants. ALL GAMES ARE SATURDAY at the Seelye Center (click here for map). Team Brown (mostly freshmen and sophomores) will play in the morning and Team Orange (mostly juniors and seniors) will play in the afternoon. For schedules and rosters, click here.

ALL PLAYERS MUST HAVE A PHYSICAL ON FILE IN THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR'S OFFICE IN ORDER TO TRY OUT. The physical must have been completed after April 15, 2006 to be valid for the spring season.

Tryouts Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (March 12, 13, & 14) will be at SoccerZone on Sprinkle from 3:25 to 4:55 each day due to the wet outdoor conditions that will exist when the snow finally melts. If you need help with transportation, call your friends and find a ride.

Players need to bring shinguards, water, and soccer shoes. It is advised you bring cleats, indoor, and turf shoes. We are using field A & C.
Everyone should meet as a group first on Field C to go over who's attending and their eligibility status. If players do not have a physical on file in the Athletic Office or have it with them at the tryout, YOU CANNOT PARTICIPATE! Mr Riker has given Coach Fuehr a list of players and whether or not a physical is on file. If it isn't on file with the AD, you can bring your physical form to tryouts.
Remember that due to field size constraints we cannot have all players tryout for varsity at once. The coaching staff will be evaulating on both fields and moving players as needed.
On Wednesday the coaching staff will individually meet with each girl to let them know their status.

GAME SCHEDULES AVAILABLE ON highschoolsports.net (scroll down for girls)
Note the scrimmages Monday March 26 at Kalamazoo Christian, and the first games Thursday March 30 at Plainwell, so plan your spring break departure as appropriate.

Thanks to everyone who voted for the Portage School Facilities Improvement bond issue on Feb 27. We'll try again later this year.
