Notes:

• Flag football is a competitive sport and as such we will need to make cuts after each round of tryouts.

• Flag football is a coed sport. All are welcome to try out.

• Tryout communication will be done through Google Classroom (code given at meeting on the 25th) and on the webpage.

• Players should attend both days of tryouts for their grade level.  If you cannot attend a day be sure to communicate with coaches.

• 7th graders we feel can compete for a varsity starting position will be invited to the varsity tryouts.

• Players should wear cleats or sneakers and bring water and sunscreen to tryouts.

• We welcome and support multi-sport athletes and multi-talented students.  If you want to play flag football but have scheduling conflicts contact the coaches and we’ll do what we can to work with you.  

• During our first week back at school, turn in your paperwork to Coach Pearlman (room 253) and receive a tryout number.
