GET IN THE GAME

We offer 4 levels of high school teams to accommodate all abilities and skill levels. All players who tryout are placed within a program in our organization. Our Local teams stay in town and our Heat teams and Fire teams are our travel teams. More team details are listed below.

When you register for tryouts please let us know what level of team you are trying out for. Placement onto a Travel team is not guaranteed but all players are eligible to make a Local team. Playing time at ALL levels is determined by the players attendance at practices, their skill level and at the coaches discretion.

Team Selection

Each season San Diego Sol will conduct tryouts for its various teams. Each prospective player must come to tryouts prepared and ready to show his/her basketball abilities. Former and current San Diego Sol players are not guaranteed a playing position on any team. Earning a position on a team will be based on upon the following criteria:

skills and ability
heart, effort and hustle
commitment to the team
work ethic and drive
coachability and respect

At the club’s discretion, individual players may be moved from one team to another. As any player’s skills and commitment level improve, we may ask the player to move to a higher-level team. These changes in the roster might be necessary to assure the appropriate competitive level for each team and to insure the maximum benefit to each player.

Practices

All teams practice twice a week. Youth teams normally practice on Mondays/Wednesdays or Mondays/Thursdays but other day combinations may occur. Potential practice times are 4:00-5:30pm, 5:45-7:15pm and 7:30-9pm with the younger teams generally practicing in the earlier time slots. Specific practice times are determined after tryouts when the teams are being formed.
