  • 2024/25 Team Tryouts will be in early July - Exact Dates will be published by March 1.

    Far Post Holds Official Tryouts in July for the following season which runs from November to June.

    Still Looking for a team for spring 2024:

    IF you missed tryouts, but you are interested in joining a team, here are a few things you need to know:

    1. First, it is important to understand that we are a small soccer community in Vermont and there are recruiting rules that we need to (and should) follow. If your player has been playing with another soccer club this year, we'd need to have them released before they could tryout with us AND before we can tell you if we’d have a spot for you.

    2. Second, if they have not been with a club this year or if they have been released, we need to make sure we still have room on our rosters to add another player.

    3. If 1 and 2 are all set, we can invite your player to a couple of practices as a tryout. You will need to fill out the tryout link and/or reach out admin@farpostsoccerclub.com.

    Here is the tryout link: Tryout Link

    ***Every person interested in joining a team, MUST register***

SUMMER TRYOUTS FOR 2023/24 have concluded… check back in spring for 24/25 updates.

See above details about joining a team for the rest of the 23/24 season.

See below for age groups for the 24/25 season.

We do not make any cuts for our U10 Boys or Girls teams, so you will note this isn't a true tryout.

Following the session, families will be sent a welcome email with details on how to sign up.
