 See the Registration tab for details.

 As we approach the season, here are some FAQ

Q.  When does practice start?

A.  OYF follows the MN high school schedule. First practice is Monday August 17 behind the high school. Each team will determine its own practice schedule. Typical days are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Most teams will practice at least 3 days a week. Typical weekday start time for August is 6:00. 

Q.  When are tryouts? What team is my son on?

A.  We use the first week of practice to evaluate the players. Team draft takes place by the coaches around the end of the first week of practice.

Q.  When is the equipment hand out?

A.  There is no equipment to hand out. The list of equipment to be supplied by parents is listed on the website and should be brought to the first practice.

Q.  Can I specify a team or friend for my son to play?

A.  No. We only work to create equal teams based on coach evaluations. Additional requests can not be managed.

Information regarding practice will be each team's coach decision.  Any practice or game  is automatically cancelled/delayed in the event of lightening for a period of 30 minutes following last lightening. In cases of wet fields, practice location may vary within the general area behind the high school in order to maintain the condition of the game fields.

Many of the fields can handle the wet weather we have seen in recent weeks. Do not assume a game is cancelled for rain at 4:00. Expect a game to be on unless you hear from a coach or read it on this page of the website.
