We have completed the preliminary team placements for the Summer ’09 Orono Soccer season. In order to reserve your spot, you must register your child by December 31, 2008. Failure to do so may result in forfeiture of your roster spot.
In addition, as you can see we are in need of additional players for some age groups. If you know someone that wants to play but did not attend the tryouts, encourage them to register as well. We always attempt to find a roster spot for all registered players but can not guarantee that we will be able to do so.
The team placements were done based upon tryout results and supplemented with coaching feedback when necessary. Players making the top teams in each age group did so according to their overall results during the tryouts conducted by independent evaluators. Multiple teams at the same age group and level will be balanced out based on tryout results. If more than one team exists for a given level of play, we will attempt to keep them as closely aligned with previous years as is feasible.
Keep in mind that these team placements may be modified prior to the beginning of the soccer season. Players will ONLY be moved up to a higher team or the next age group. We will not move a player down (e.g. from Maroon to Gold, or C2 to C3). Once the registration period is closed, coaches on the higher level teams may be involved in pulling players up to complete roster spots.
Team placements will not be finalized until registration is completed.
