Rec Plus Spring 2012 Evaluation Session
To Be Held at CRRP March 3

The Rec Plus Spring 2012 evaluation session will be held at Chancellor’s Run Regional Park Saturday, March 3. A limited number of players are needed for the U12 and U14 age divisions.

The U12 age division session will begin at 11:30 AM, the U14 age division session will begin at 12:30 PM. Allow time to check in before your session is scheduled to start.

The Spring 2012 evaluation form is in the left hand column of this page. Your player must be registered with St. Mary’s Youth Soccer to be considered for a Rec Plus team for Spring 2012.

RecPlus Division Overview
Saint Mary’s Youth Soccer, operating in cooperation with Calvert Soccer Association (CSA),  Saint Mary’s Northern Soccer League (SMNSL), and Waldorf Soccer Club, offers a Recreation Plus (RecPlus) Division that allows above average players the opportunity to play competitive soccer without the travel required by Select teams.  RecPlus is open to both male and female players.
 
For SMYS Players: All players who played RecPlus in the Fall 2011 season MUST register and will be assigned to the same team unless notified otherwise.  There will be a supplemental RecPlus Evaluation held in March.  Players must be registered in order to be evaluated. Players rostered on an SMYS team for Fall 2011 need not attend.

The following are some general guidelines for the RecPlus division:

PLAYER REGISTRATION. Showing up for a evaluation does not register you for the Fall or Spring season.  You must register and pay the season registration fee either online or during a walkin registration date (if offered).

COACH SELECTION.  RecPlus coaches are experienced coaches with above average qualifications and generally hold at least a USSF "E" license or equivalent.

PLAYER EVALUATIONS (TRYOUTS):   Since no players are ever “cut” from the recreational soccer program, it is inaccurate to use the term “tryout.”  We hold player evaluations to determine player placement – on either a recreational or RecPlus team.  Prior to each Fall season, a minimum of two evaluations will be held in conjunction with registration. These evaluations will determine which players are eligible for the RecPlus division.  The coaches that have been selected for the upcoming season will evaluate each player based on the evaluation format and rating form.  Players not selected for RecPlus are automatically placed in the Recreational Divison.  A supplemental evaluation may be held prior to the Spring season to fill roster slots created by departing players.

PLAYER PLACEMENT:  Players will be placed on teams through a modified draft procedure, with some restrictions on team assignments based on the area in which they live. 

SEASON:  Each RecPlus team roster is composed prior to the Fall season and will stay together through the end of the following Spring season.
