BLACKHAWK FUTBOL CLUB
Competitive League Soccer Tryouts
HTSA, under the Blackhawk Futbol Club banner, are holding tryouts to form their Competitive League Soccer Teams to compete during the FALL 2012 & SPRING 2013 season. Any player from 9 to 17 years old who enjoys the sport and wishes to train & compete at a competitive level should strongly consider attending the HTSA/Blackhawk Tryouts. Players who do not wish to compete in the Louisiana Competitive League will be placed on a HTSA Recreational Team.
The focus of HTSA’s Blackhawk Futbol Club is to develop every soccer player while providing a positive, highly competitive, and enjoyable team-building environment. We recommend and invite all Parents and Players who are unfamiliar with the Blackhawk Futbol Club to attending an informational, Q&A type meeting on Monday, April 30th, 2012 from 6-8 pm at the Terrebonne Parish Main Library (downstairs meeting room) in Houma.
Listed below are the tryout dates and times for all age groups. Players interested should attend both tryout sessions to broaden the evaluation opportunity by our coaches. A makeup date is also provided should there be a conflict. All tryouts will be held at The Lakes Soccer Complex and there will be a $5 tryout fee. All players will be required to tryout for their appropriate age group! Players may attend a next older age group tryout, but final Board determination will be based on several factors including 1) the child's ability based on Blackhawk coaching staff evaluation, 2) Impact on both age groups/teams in question, long and short term and 3) Parent and player request/reasoning for moving up an age group.
If you have a conflict with the tryout dates and wish to make alternate arrangements, or cannot attend the meeting and have questions; please contact Kevin Champagne, HTSA President, at ckchampagne@yahoo.com or (985) 381-1628, or Kurt Cheramie, HTSA Vice-President at kurt.cheramie@elpaso.com or (985) 209-2283.
