Team Sask Talent ID Information
The try out process for teams are:
- Athletes attend Open Talent ID sessions. Athletes should be at ALL sessions. If an athlete can not make an Open Talent ID session, they still need to register and pay the Open Talent ID session fee by the first floor time. We will work with the athlete to determine another time they can be evaluated dependent on the reason they are missing the session.
- After the Open Talent ID sessions, Coaches will determine which athletes are invited back to the Invitational Talent ID sessions. How many athletes are carried forward will be up to each age groups Coaches.
- Athletes who move forward will attend the Invitational Talent ID sessions.
- For the BOX teams, after the Invitational Talent ID sessions, Coaches will have until the first week of June to watch athletes at different tournaments/events and finalize their rosters. This will be for teams attending Minor Box Nationals and the Jr. NLL tournament, so athletes will find out if they are placed to the Nationals Team, Jr. NLL team, or no longer moving forward. For FIELD teams, after the Invitational Talent ID sessions, Coaches will have until the week after the SLA Field Provincials to watch athletes and finalize their rosters, with Provincials being a final evaluation weekend.
We recognize the try out process is a long one, however we want to ensure all interested athletes are given a fair opportunity to be thoroughly evaluated, with Try Outs being held prior to the start of the season, it is important Coaches see how players do during games. Sask Lacrosse will do what it can in terms of booking parent hotels, and flight options to help keep costs down for families wishing to travel to watch their athlete.
TO HELP KEEP ATHLETES FOCUSED ALL TALENT ID SESSIONS ARE CLOSED TO SPECTATORS, INCLUDING PARENTS.
2023 TALENT ID TIMES (TIMES ARE SUBJECTIVE TO CHANGE IF DEEMED NECESSARY)
The all age group female sessions is an opportunity for our female athletes to get together for an hour as a female only session to work on skills and get to know other female athletes from across the Province.
For the two hour time slots on Sundays, this is so families could get on the road after a player is done a session, instead of wait a few hours. For these sessions athletes will do skills/drills for an hour, have a snack/water break and then scrimmage for the second hour.
