TRYOUTS
Your Opportunity to Join SbFc Academy
The first step toward quality coaching, player development, and competitive excellence
SBFC Academy tryouts are designed to identify motivated players who will thrive in our development environment. Our professional coaching staff evaluates not just current ability, but potential, work ethic, and how players respond to coaching. Every player receives fair consideration and constructive feedback regardless of outcome.

For Parents
We understand that tryouts can be an anxious time for parents as well as players. Rest assured that our evaluation process is designed to be fair, comprehensive, and supportive. Our coaching staff creates an environment where players can showcase their abilities without unnecessary pressure.
What parents can expect :
- A welcoming atmosphere where your child can perform at their best
- Clear communication before, during, and after the tryout process
- Professional evaluations based on multiple factors, not just a single session
- Constructive feedback regardless of selection outcome
- Transparency about team placement decisions and development pathways
We encourage parents to help prepare their child mentally by emphasizing effort and enjoyment rather than outcome. Remember that nervousness is normal, and often a sign that your child cares about the opportunity. Our coaches are experienced at putting players at ease and bringing out their best qualities during the evaluation process.
Parents are welcome to observe tryouts from designated areas, though we ask that you refrain from coaching from the sidelines during the session. This allows players to focus on the instructions from our coaching staff and demonstrates their ability to process and apply guidance independently.
