Maine Rapids 2024-2025 Winter Session Structure
Maine Rapids is accepting up to 35 players in each age group (U19, U16, U14, U12/10) to participate in the 2024-2025 winter session. Players will practice together in their age group practice time slots and tournament team selections will occur based on performance at practice. There is a practice-only option for those players that do not wish to be considered for a tournament team, giving more athletes an opportunity to grow their game.
U19 and U16 age groups participaate in tryouts. We will be inviting players to one of two tournament teams for the U19 and U16 age groups. The first teams will compete at Disney’s Wide World of Sports Sunshine Showcase in Florida and the Queen of Hearts Tournament in New Hampshire. The second teams will compete in the HTC and Santa Jam tournaments. See the schedule.
At the U14, U12, and U10 levels, registration is on a first come, first served basis. There is no one-day tryout. We will be inviting athletes to compete in each tournament. U14 players practice together twice per week, and U12/U10 players practice together once a week. See the schedule.
We look forward to providing a great opportunity for athletes in central Maine!
