DENVER, Colo. – The Colorado Rapids Women have announced the dates for open tryouts in preparation for the 2013 W-League season as well as their Super 20-League title defense for the current North American Champions, the Colorado Rapids Women Super 20s. The Rapids Women Open Tryouts will be held December 28-29 at the Golden Goal Sports Indoor Complex, located at 2650 Alkire Street, Golden, Colorado.
The session on Friday December 28 will run from 5-7 p.m. and the Saturday session will run from 10 a.m.-noon. Colorado Rapids Women Head Coach Daniel Clitnovici and staff will be on hand to evaluate trialists.
The tryouts will cost $40 per player. Players are asked to check in/register prior to the tryout dates and also bring turf shoes or cleats.
"Last season we had a great turnout with many talented players wanting to be part of the Rapids women and coming in from all across America," Clitnovici said. "It’s a good time of the year to try out with high-level teams because a lot of players are still in fine form coming off their collegiate seasons. As a staff, we will be looking for some key areas of improving the team.
"We had a good start last season with the squad we rostered but we are always looking to better improve our team on and off the field."
Players interested in trying out need to contact Colorado Rapids Women Assistant Coach Rebekah Patrick at rebekah@rapidswomen.com and register prior to tryouts. Players are encouraged to register early as there is a tryout cap set to allow for accurate evaluations.
