As the Junior FireAnts enter our 5^th season of competition, the coaching staff has reviewed our four years’ of experience and identified some additional improvements that we hope will enhance players’ and parents’ experiences in 2012.
 
This year, the Junior Ants will not be holding try-outs. Instead, we are asking all players who are interested in participating on a team to register on-line, free of charge, during March.
 
Initially, we are hoping to offer teams at all age levels: 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U, 16U and 18U. However, if we don’t have enough registrations to assemble a team for a particular age group, we may offer some players the opportunity to play one level “up”. For example, if we only have 4 registrations at the 14U level, we may offer some or all of those players the opportunity to play on the 16U team, if spaces are available.
 
For 2012, teams will contain a maximum of 10 players, including goalies.
 
After March  31^st, the coaches will review all registrations that have been received and assemble their teams. Players will be notified if they are placed on a team and will then be required to pay a $100 Registration Fee to secure their placement.
 
The Registration Fee covers 6 guaranteed practices, beginning the week of April 8^th.
 
This year, the Junior Ants will participate in two tournaments:

• The Nutmeg State Games, in Glastonbury, CT, July 13-15 and July 21-22
• The Susquehanna Summer Showdown (“Hershey Tournament”), in Lemoyne, PA, August 24-26     

 
Separate Tournament Fees will be assessed for each tournament, with strict payment deadlines established. Our hope is that this “a la carte” payment program will be easier for players and their families from both a financial perspective and a planning perspective. In addition, it will help coaches get a better handle on their team status for these tournaments.
 
Since July is quite awhile away, we are still looking for additional playing opportunities – individual games, jamborees, or local tournaments – in May and June. Naturally, additional participation fees may need to be assessed for participation in these types of activities.
 
Look for an announcement, coming soon to an email in-box near you that registration has opened. 

In the meantime, if you have any questions about the 2012 program, please don't hesitate to contact me by   or phone (860.729.6569). 

Remember, the Junior FireAnts are on Facebook too!
