The tryout committee recognizes that tryouts are extremely important to players and families. We have tried to make the tryout process a fair, fun, and pressure-free environment for the players. The decision to place a player on a team is never made unilaterally, but through group deliberation and consensus. This ensures a fair and objective tryout selection process. By using an evaluation system that utilizes multiple criteria, the tryout committee’s goal is to ensure that its final decision on team placement is objective and holistic. Decisions are made after a thorough and careful review by the tryout committee.
Players must be registered for tryouts through a parent account on this website, in order to receive an invitation to a Northwind SC or AYSO EXTRA team. Invitations will be sent by email to the address on the parent's account, with instructions for accepting or declining the invitation. Invited players will not be considered rostered Northwind or EXTRA team members until the program fees have been paid. Payment plans are available, as well as a limited number of scholarships. To apply for a scholarship, submit the online
