2024 Season Information
Registration for the 2024 season opens July 15. There is a mandatory Parents, Athletes and Coaches meeting (PAC) on August 12 in the Eden Prairie High School gym.
In order to register, all athletes must have a physical on file with Eden Prairie Schools that was completed within the last three years. All players must also be registered to tryout. If you have any questions about registration, please call 952-975-8100.
We have four teams (Varsity, JV, B-Squad, 9th grade) and strive to select as many players as possible.

Fitness Test
We ask that our players, especially those who plan on competing for a varsity position, report to tryouts in excellent shape. Our rationale is that we want to spend time and energy on technical and tactical aspects of the game, rather than conditioning. Once we the season begins, it’s very difficult to condition when we have games nearly every other day.

- The test includes: 80-yard sprint – completed in 14 seconds – return jog 80 yards to the beginning in 26 seconds - 1 set in 40 second
