Ms. GG

Training days: Training will be on Monday & Thursdays (Boys), Mondays and Wednesdays (Girls) from 3:30-5:00 pm.
I understand and sympathize with everyone’s busy schedule, and also understand that many students have training for club, national team or other in addition to representing CIS. We do ask that you prioritize 1 of the training days each week, even if you cannot stay for the entire training to ensure that we build continuity as a team.
The season will begin on Wednesday, August 27th, Thursday August 28th, Training will begin at 3:30PM and end at 5:00PM.
Tryouts: Tryouts will be on Thursday August 28th and end on Thursday, September 4th. It is imperative to attend at minimum of 1 try out day to be considered for the White team.
Team Selection: Based on current registration numbers for the U13 boys football team we will enter 1 team into the league. Players will be evaluated and selected based on the 4 corners (Technical/Tactical, Social, Psychological, Physical).
CIS White Team- This will be the select team, with a cap of 18 players. These players will be selected to put forth the most competitive side CIS can offer. While this team will have a higher focus on winning, I want to make it clear that it is not winning at all costs. The boy’s development, safety and enjoyment of the sport are still top priorities.
CIS Blue Team- this will be the open team, with no cap or cut off, any player not selected for the White team will be placed on the blue team. This team will train only, will not have league games but will participate in the 6v6 tournament.
Uniforms:
Training top: Each football player on both the White and Blue team will be given a white training top, these tops are graciously sponsored by PwC and are yours to
keep. Players from last year should already have one, we will prioritize the upcoming grade 6s and new students to CIS. If you are a returning player and need a new size or replacement we will accommodate those requests as well with remaining stock.
Game uniforms: The league will provide blue DART/CUC game uniforms that we will wear on game day, these will be distributed closer to the start of matches and will be required to be returned at the end of the season.
