Key Eastlake High School Boys Soccer Notes
This page provides key notes that every player and parent should be
aware of before the season begins.
Training and Practices
Soccer teams train after school every Monday through
Friday from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30/7:00 p.m., unless otherwise directed by their
coach. Except: There
is no practice or training on game days. Practices are mandatory
unless cleared with the coach in advance of the absence. Team
events for Varsity are also mandatory. Items each player
should bring to practices, training, and games:
1) Water Bottle
2) Soccer appropriate clothing, cleats, and "all players must wear
shinguards."
Note: Coaches may require running
long distances so players should bring good running shoes or
sneakers in addition to soccer clothes and cleats.
Uniforms
Uniforms are distributed to all Players at the beginning of the season.
Some incidentals are provided during Parent Night such as socks and
the fees for these items are collected at that time. All
uniform items are returned at the end of the season such as bags,
jerseys, and shorts.
Player Requirements
Registration for Eastlake High
School sports must be completed before tryouts.
Each
perspective Player must have their "sports clearance card" prior to
the first tryout or practice.
Players must attend a minimum
number of practices, which is ten, prior to the first game in which
they play.
Players must pass required grade checks to be
eligible to play in any competition games. No "F's" and above a 2.0.
Varsity Players
attend "Camp Waskowitz in North Bend" on a weekend before the season
begins. There is an additional fee for the camp which is
collected on Parent Night. Extra training is provided during the
camp time, as well as team-building exercises.
Before each
Home game, teams may have required team-building events. (e.g.
Pasta feeds for Varsity team, or Friday group dinners for
Freshman/Sophomore team, etc.)
During the bus ride for Away
games, teams may have sub-sandwiches, healthy snacks, and sport
drinks. Fees for these items are collected during Parent
Night.
On "Game Day" Eastlake High School Soccer teams typically
wear the lighter (white) uniform kit for Home games, and the dark
(maroon) uniform kit for Away games. However, always bring
both and be prepared for changes!!!
Season Game Notes
Junior Varsity and Varsity games are played on the same day.
Junior Varsity games begin at 5:30 p.m. followed by the Varsity at
7:30 p.m., unless otherwise noted on the master schedule.
Freshman/Sophomore games are typically on Mondays (Home) and
Wednesdays (Away) mostly starting at 6:00 p.m. or 6:30 p.m.
Volunteers
Parent volunteers are needed to help
support the team-building events such as pasta feeds.
As a
fundraiser, Parent volunteers are needed to run the concession stand
during the Junior Varisty and Varsity Home games. (There will be no
concession stand for the 2024 season that parents have to work at.)
Near the end of the season there will be "Senior Night" and volunteers are
needed to help make this a special event for graduating Seniors.
(This is typically coordinated by Sophomore and/or Junior parents.)
Support for the boys soccer program is 100% run by volunteers.
Everyone should do their best to be involved in some capacity.
