Southern Sports Future Prospects Showcase Weekend Documents
Messages
Parents - PLEASE READ THIS,
MAKE SURE THAT THE ONLINE WAIVER HAS BEEN COMPLETED - ALL PLAYERS MUST HAVE THIS COMPLETED ASAP IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE ON FRIDAY
Below is the schedule for the Friday session of the Future Prospects. A few things to remember:
Friday Location: 3640 Southland Drive, Flowery Branch, Georgia 30542
Arrival Times: Please make sure to have your player at the facility for his assigned testing time. Scehdules will be sent out but the first check-in time is expected to be around 12pm on Friday, and the entire evaluation will end by approximately 5pm.
What to Wear: This is an indoor facility and it is required that all players either wear turfs or sneakers. It will be hot, so shorts are suggested. Upon checking in, each player will receive jerseys for the weekend. Each player needs to wear one of those jerseys during the Friday session in order for our staff to identify your player as they proceed through the testing.
For planning purposes, the jerseys are solid white and solid red.
Check-In Upon Arrival: Once you arrive at the facility, check-in will take place in the lobby of the facility. As you check-in, your player will be given two jerseys and instruction on where to go in order to warm-up for the testing with their group.
Parent Access: The only area that is open for parents will be around the outer perimeter of the facility which is OUTSIDE THE NETTING. Weather permitting, the large doors will be open during testing, which can help with your access during the testing. No one is allowed in the office areas or upstairs at the facility.
Expectations During the Session: Players will be tested on Arm Velo, Defensive Skills, 30 Yard Run, Hitting, and Exit Velo.
During the weekend, you will receive an email to gain access to the results of your player in the form of a player profile.
What is Next: After the testing, our coaches will draft their teams for the weekend. This may delay you getting Saturday's schedule and coach communication until FRIDAY evening. Games are scheduled to be played at the Coop in Gainesville. Your coaches will contact you Friday evening and coordinate when your team will meet on Saturday. Please be patient as this process has to happen after the testing. The goal is to draft teams quickly and turn the coaches loose to make contact with you shortly thereafter. Age groups have been combined to play as 9u/10u and 11u/12u.
Draft Guidelines for Coaches: To be transparent, the coaches will follow a very simple procedure in selecting players. The coach's child will be the only player placed on rosters (head coach and assistant coach). After that has been done, the coaches will rotate with each other selecting players for their teams until all players have been selected. We will not have trades/swapping of players during or after the draft.
Coaches are Still Needed: Please let us know if you can volunteer your time as there is a definite need to find more coaches....especially in the 11u/12u age group.
To help in our planning, please notify us if your player is not going to attend Friday's session.
