Summer Training Program Disclaimer: Team selection for the 2011 season will not be based on attendance or lack thereof during the summer training sessions. We understand that during the summer there are family activities and vacations planned and we respect this time off soccer. This is simply an opportunity we are offering players to be prepared for tryouts. Each player has the choice to participate in these sessions or not, ultimately tryouts not summer training participation will determine team placement. Players who chose not to participate in summer training program are responsible to train on their own and be ready for tryouts. If you have any questions about any of this please contact Head Coach Ramon Aguillon.
