General Information
Tryouts will be held at Casperson Park between July 18th-21st for U9-U11 age groups. Players must attend both days in order to be properly evaluated and considered for a team. These tryouts are strictly meant for those with a 2012-2015 birth year. We will not accept any players with a birth year younger than 2015 into the travel program. The tryout fees are $25/player (2013-2015BY), $50/player (2012 BY), which includes your tryout t-shirts the club provides you on Day 1. Players are asked to bring cleats, shorts, socks, soccer ball, water, shin guards, and tryout shirts.
U9-U10 age groups will have tryouts in July to determine our Fall Travel Rosters. An additional tryout will be held towards the end of October to determine our Spring/Summer Travel Rosters. The reason for two tryouts within the year being U9-U10 ages involve rapid technical development which can change the team a player should be placed on in a short period of time. Spring/Summer travel teams will have winter training beginning January, minimum 1x/week.
U11 age group will have one tryout, held in July, to determine both 2022 Fall & 2023 Spring/Summer Rosters. Teams in the U11 age group will have winter training beginning in January. Winter training is a minimum of 1x/week and spans from January-April.
All U9-U12 age groups have both Academy & Competitive level teams. A look at our current teams and the typical yearly structure can be found by clicking the links below.

If you are unable to attend your tryout dates, you MUST email Forrest Randall at [email protected] and Darlene Patyk at [email protected], and provide your player’s name, age, gender, date of birth and current team. We will do our best to find proper placement for kids that miss any dates, but there is no guarantee that spots will be available. By missing tryouts, the family understands that your team placement may change based on the player pool that is able to attend your age group.
You must register for tryouts in order to be considered for a team. Go to www.lakevillesoccer.org and login to your existing account, or if new to LSC setup an account, to register for tryouts.
Tryout Results & Placements
Team placements will be posted no later than midnight on July 23rd. Scores and specific results will not be shared with families. Players requiring feedback can reference their 2022 Summer Coach Evaluations (previous LSC players). All player placements are final once posted. We will not address any communications regarding placement decisions.
Players are NOT guaranteed a spot in the travel program. Decisions for placement are made based on the staff's confidence in the player's ability to compete at the travel level. We do our very best to ensure spots are assigned if developmentally appropriate.
Waitlist Information
Depending on the amount of players that attend tryouts, the club may be put in a position to form a waitlist. This is a scenario where there are not enough players to form an additional team within that age group. Players will be notified of their initial waitlist status as teams are posted. Within 72 hours of team postings, we will notify waitlist families if spots have opened up for them to accept.
In some cases, age groups may be combined to ensure waitlist families have a team to play on. The club will communicate these opportunities if the situation allows for it.
