Good morning Jags,

Our Varsity football team is very much looking forward to starting up and defending our city championship from last season! We will have 4 tryouts. They will be held Aug 29, 30,(3-5 pm) and the first two days of school Sept 3 and 4 (2:45-4:45 pm). Right on our Jags main field. All players need is cleats, T-shirt, shorts and a water bottle. If you do not have cleats, running shoes are fine for tryouts. No experience needed, our coaching staff will teach you to play the game!

If you cannot attend the tryouts in Aug, I understand, please  let Coach Scatcherd know, and be sure to be at both tryouts in September. Coach Scatcherd would appreciate players who are attending tryouts to let him know via email (blaine.scatcherd@ocsb.ca) if that can so coaching staff can get an idea of numbers.

Look forward to seeing many of you at tryouts!
