We want to see you at Check Hers tryouts!

Check Hers Elite Lacrosse Club is a program that provides excellent coaching instruction and playing opportunities for girls in an atmosphere that is positive, nurturing, and competitive. We are the premier club in Carroll County, MD and service a large number of players from Carroll County, Howard County, Baltimore County, and Frederick County.

Check Hers Elite Lacrosse will be holding open tryouts for the 2015 summer season for the high school graduation classes of 2017 through 2023. There will be TWO tryouts for each age group.  Please see the schedule below.   We will carry two teams per age group if we have the numbers to do so.  Our top teams are referred as “Black” and our 2nd tier team is referred to as “Pink”.

How to Register for Tryouts

Location

Carroll Community College, 1601 Washington Road, Westminster MD 21157
Lower 'Bowl' field.

Team Placement

Placement of players to the Black or the Pink teams will be based on player ability, skills, and commitment to club participation. We do not allow players to play up or down a grade level. Tryout results will be emailed to each family after the 2014 fall season has been completed. We will create a waitlist for each team.  We ask you to please respect the try-out process, our evaluations, the evaluators, and the following criterion:

• BLACK TEAM: Girls have speed to keep the ball moving at a maximum rate, have superb stick skills, great game sense, and are committed to attending all events and have decided to play lacrosse in college at the most competitive level.
• PINK TEAM: Girls have solid stick skills, good game sense, and are committed to attending all events, and have decided to play lacrosse in college.

Check Hers tryouts are open for all players.  In past years we have had players move from Pink to Black and Black to Pink.  We do not base our evaluations on the prior year’s play and truly reward the players that have improved their play.  Overall talent is a major factor but the biggest factor is the player’s commitment.  All players must attend both days of tryouts.  Check Hers Elite Lacrosse reserves the right to add players based on individual evaluations completed by any Check Hers Lacrosse Coach.

* All try-outs will be outdoors!  We cannot get a sense for field speed and game sense by running an indoor try-out.   Please dress appropriately.  Check the website for any announcements pertaining to try-outs.  This will be placed directly on the homepage: http://www.checkherselitelax.com/ 

What to Bring to Tryouts

Bring water, your stick, mouth guard, goggles, sneakers or cleats for the grass fields. Goalies must bring their own equipment. 

You MAY NOT wear any high school, club gear, elite camp, pinnies and paraphernalia.  Bring a REVERSIBLE PINNIE, light color on a side and a color on the other side.  College jerseys are permitted.
