Fall 2021 Schedule:  VARSITY

(last updated:  October 22, 2021)

Schedule for Trainings/Games/Meetings:  The schedule occasionally must change, as we share our training spaces with many other Wootton sports teams, and the Stadium Field's usage often changes for a variety of reasons, so please check back often.  There will be additional scrimmages scheduled, as well.

* soccer ball, fully inflated, with name on it
* shinguards

GENERAL INFORMATION

Player Registration:  All player registration must be completed on-line via the MCPS ParentVUE system by Monday, August 9.  Please go to the Wootton Athletics website (woottonsports.com) to find the necessary information to login and submit the required information, including the doctor's Clearance Form and the special Covid forms. Please remember that no player will be allowed to participate in tryouts without having submitted all paperwork online in a complete fashion!  The only exception is that you may submit scans of the Clearance Form and Covid Waiver by email to Mr. Al Lightsey, Wootton Athletic Specialist.  If you do that, please ALSO bring a hard copy to hand-deliver to Coach Schuessler on the first day of training.

Parents/Team/Coaches Meeting:  This meeting will occur in late August, and details are TBD at this time.  In past and future years, there would be an all-sports program held one evening in late August, at which all players and at least one parent are required to attend.  The meeting would be held in the Wootton Cafeteria, would include food, and would run something like 6:30-8:30 PM.  After some time to eat, there would be a school-wide sports meeting that would be followed by our team-specific meeting.  Whether that will be the case this year or not remains to be determined by school leaders.

Concussion Baseline Testing:  All players are required to complete a concussion baseline test, administered by the athletic training staff at the school.  Players who previously have completed this test for participation in Wootton athletics may or may not need to repeat that test, and more information will be shared as it becomes available.  Specific date/time for the scheduled testing will be posted as soon as it becomes available, and candidate players will need to make it a priority to attend the testing at that time.

School Year Training Schedule ... everything is TBD, as of now.  After-school practice times will be announced later in August.
