Our tryouts are more than just a tryout, it’s an experience. An experience that shows how FLG runs it’s program.

Our tryouts expose players to the drills we run, the coaches that coach, and the way we play.

We talk to the player’s at the end of the tryout to discuss one of the most important topics of all, commitment.

Commitment to getting better, commitment to the lifestyle of becoming a collegiate studlete, and a commitment to your team.
