Tryouts for the 1998-99 U-10 Girls A team will take place at Stillwell Field on Tuesday, April 21 and Thursday, April 23 at 5:30 p.m. Two more tryouts will be held, by invitation only, on Tuesday, April 28 and Friday, May 1at Stillwell Field.

Children wishing to try out should make every attempt to attend the first two tryouts. They will then be notified if they are called back for future tryouts.

All children should bring to each tryout:

* a No. 4 size ball, shin guards, cleats, water or a drink

* a Syosset intramural jersey (reversible)...Girls should wear a tee-shirt under their Syosset jerseys, if the need arises to have them switch colors.

* an index card with the child's name, address, parent or guardian's name and address, and daytime and evening phone numbers.

* four safety pins

If a child wants to try out for goalkeeper position, she should bring goalie gloves and a goalie jersey with her.

Coach Rich Hoda is looking forward to meeting all parents and children. Questions should be directed to him at 364-1422.

In hoping to allow more children of the community an opportunity to continue to play soccer, the Syosset Soccer Club will be offering a new Senior Division for the fall of 1998 and the spring of 1999 that will consist of both fourth and fifth grade children. This new division will be an intramural program with games to be played at Stillwell Fields. All children that are currently playing in the intermediate (third and fourth grade) program now can still play soccer without being on a travel soccer team. The upcoming third grade children will play as third grade only.

The program is new and will need sufficient registration to maintain the integrity consistent with the current intermediate program. Everyone in the intermediate program is encouraged to register during the club's normal registration period in May. If not enough children register, the club will revert back to the current program and refund registration as appropriate.
