Before you travel
Read the details for your chosen trial and confirm your place with the team. Check the venue, start time, age group, kit and any identification you need. An application is not a confirmed booking.
On the pitch
A trial may include technical exercises and game situations. Listen to the instructions, communicate with teammates and play in a way that shows your usual strengths. The format and length depend on the event.
After the session
Ask how and when you should expect an update. Write down useful observations about your performance while they are fresh. One trial is one experience; use it to decide what to work on next.
For parents
Confirm supervision and collection arrangements before the day. Keep the team's contact details and make sure your child's application includes the required guardian information.
