All 2012 traveling softball participants are required to make one or both of the days listed. We are encouraging each girl to take advantage of a second tryout opportunity if they can. During this time we will take all of the girls through the tryout process. Please arrive 45 minutes to 1 hour prior to your age level time for uniform sizing. We will be ordering custom uniforms for the girls - it will be extremely important that you order the correct size.
Purchases Required: WE WILL BE REQUIRING ALL GIRLS TO PURCHASE AN UNDERSHIRT (SPORT TECH TYPE) TO WEAR UNDERNEATH THEIR JERSEYS. HYAA IS GOING TO THE EXPENSE TO HAVE ALL NEW "CUSTOM" JERSEY'S MADE FOR THE GIRLS. TO MAKE THE UNIFORM COMPLETE - THESE WILL BE REQUIRED FOR ALL.
WE WILL HAVE SAMPLES FOR SIZING:
SHORT SLEEVE (REQUIRED) $21.00
LONG SLEEVE: (OPTIONAL) $26.00
We will also have some Ringor Spikes available for purchase. These are high quality spikes that most of the Varsity players wear. They have a special spike for the pitchers that have a reinforced toe. These will be available at a reduced price if we can get an order of 10 pairs together. So, if you are looking for a spike to last more than a season - these are perfect. They run between $80.00 - $90.00.
Please bring all of your equipment (ex: glove, bat, batting gloves) to be best prepared for your tryout. Tennis shoes are best on the gym floors.
Parents there will be a mandatory parent meeting to take place at the time the girls begin their tryout process. At least 1 parent needs to be present at this meeting. This will be your time to get a clear understanding of traveling softball and ask questions that you may have.
