Oregon SC doesn't hold traditional tryouts for our Competitive program.

We don't believe that it is productive to evaluate players who are currently in our competitive program during a short window during the spring. Instead, we believe that our coaches' impressions of players from six months of practices and games (for players 11U and older) help provide a more accurate, thorough evaluation in addition to the evaluation sessions.

Oregon SC does not actively recruit players, but if players currently playing for OSC Recreational teams or on teams in other clubs want to be considered for spots in our Competitive program, they can attend our evaluation sessions. 

All players wishing to be considered for spots on 2023-24 competitive rosters must register for evaluation sessions. Registration costs $10 per player and includes an Oregon SC white practice jersey.

You must have an account on the Oregon SC Demosphere system to register for evaluation sessions. If you don't have an account, create one for free and follow the instructions.

• For players who want to be considered for 11U through 14U/15U girls teams for the 2023-24 season, the deadline to register was 5 p.m. Tuesday, May 30. Registration is now closed.
• For players who want to be considered for 11U through 14U/15U boys teams for the 2023-24 season, the deadline is 5 p.m. Friday, June 2.
• For players who want to be considered for high school-age teams next season, the deadline is 5 p.m. Sunday, June 18.

Note: Players born in 2014 are welcome to register for and attend the 2013 evaluation sessions. Other players who would like to be considered for a 2023-24 Competitive team at an older age group will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

Players should arrive 15 minutes before their scheduled evaluation session to check in.

Players are encouraged to attend both evaluation sessions for their age group. If your child is not able to attend either session, please contact the Competitive commissioners and the Technical Director (see below) to discuss other possible options.

Evaluation sessions are closed to parents and other observers.

The coaches, evaluators and Technical Director will work together to form the team rosters for the 2023-24 season, using feedback from the 2022-23 season (when applicable) and the evaluation sessions. Board members do not play any role in roster selection, nor do coaches who have children in a specific age group.

The club does not release details/reports of players' evaluations.

* - Only players born in 2009 who will be in 8th grade during the 2023-24 school year. (Players born in 2009 who will be in 9th grade will be part of the High School Program; see details below.)

We again will have three windows over an eight-month span during which time there will be evaluation sessions, offers and open registration. High School-age boys players will not be able to register outside of these windows.

All players who accept offers during previous registration windows are encouraged to attend later sessions as practices.

* - Sessions at TOCA Madison, 5964 Executive Dr., Fitchburg.

Early offers

Oregon SC will again use early offer option for players who are registered with our club for the 2022-23 season, as allowed by Wisconsin Youth Soccer Association policy.

The earliest these offers can be sent is May 18, and the earliest they can expire is noon Thursday, June 15 (for 11U-15U players) and noon Thursday, June 22 (for high school-age players).

If an 11U-15U player does not initially receive an early offer, they can still receive an early offer before June 16 and can receive a regular offer on or after June 16. The same is true for high school-age players, with the key date being June 23.

Note: Per WYSA policy, players who accept early offers or regular offers from a club are not allowed to attend tryouts/evaluations for other clubs.

REGULAR offers

2023-24 regular offers to players ages 11U-15U (2013 through 2009 8th-graders) will be sent out at noon Friday, June 16, per Wisconsin Youth Soccer Association policy.

Regular offers for high school-age girls players and the first regular offers for high school-age boys players (2009 9th-graders through 2005) will be sent out at noon Friday, June 23. (More details on high school-age boys offers above)

11U-15U players will have 24 hours to accept or decline offers; high school-age offers will have a longer period of time. Not replying is consider declining.  If your family needs more time to make a decision, please contact the Competitive commissioners and the Technical Director.

According to WYSA policy, accepting an offer is a two-part process, requiring parents:

1. Accept the offer
2. Register and pay the initial registration fee

Both of these items must be completed by the times listed in the offer or the offers become null and void.

We again will be using the Demosphere system to send out offers and have parents accept/decline offers, which means both of the above steps can be done at once. Please be sure you can receive emails from Demosphere; if you do not see an offer email at the expected time, please check your spam/junk folder.
