How do Rockford Raptors FC club tryouts and registration work?Families use the club's single 2026–2027 tryout registration link so each player is in the system once, then attend the sessions scheduled for their birth year. Players may come to every session offered for that age band but are not forced to attend them all; the club still recommends maximizing attendance for evaluation quality. Tryouts stay at Sportscore Two, field assignments go out the day before each block, and league placement plus tuition details for that age group are available at check-in the day before the first tryout.
