AYSO PRACTICE LOTTERY - 2023
(Updated 7/25/2023)
*************************************************************************************
The Region 9 Practice Lottery will be held on Saturday July 29th, and will be conducted in-person at Conejo Creek Meeting room starting at 1:30pm. See the grid below for your team's Group (A-F). Within each Group, your team will get to choose practice day(s) and time(s) in the order listed in that Group. For instance, in Group A, team 08UG02 will choose first, then team 08UG03, etc.
To quickly find your team in the grid below, use your browser's Search or Find function (e.g. Ctrl-F).
This will be the only time for Team Coaches (or their designee if they are unable to attend) to choose their practice times for the upcoming fall season. If you do not attend, we will assign your team a practice time after all other coaches have made their selections.
Please keep the following in mind:
- It's in-person. Teams were selected randomly within each Division and assigned to a Group. We will be updating the Practice Schedule that is posted at the Region 9 website after the lottery is done. Check the Practice Schedule before you come to the lottery, so that you know which fields, days and times are available for your Division.
We recommend you arrive at the lottery at least 10 minutes prior to your selection time. - It's Random: You may be among the 1st 5 coaches in your group to choose, or you may be among the last 5. We select the order randomly.
- Flexibility and Adaptability are essential: With so many teams, not everyone can practice Tuesday & Thursday at 5:00pm or 6:00pm.
- Practice Days: Monday through Friday; practice times are ONE HOUR LONG and start times are on the hour (4:00, 5:00, 6:00, etc.) for all 12U and younger teams. 14U and older teams will start on the half hour (5:30, 6:30, etc.).
- Be Prompt: If you are not present at the start-time for your Group, you will be dropped to the bottom of your Group and Division's list.
- Lottery order: The list of teams and lottery order will be posted here (see below) by Thurs July 24th.
- Field Maps: Field maps with letters assigned to each practice field can be found at this link. Practices are assigned to 1/2 of each field: N or S for north/south fields H, I, J and K; and E or W for east/west fields C, D, E, L, M and N.
It will help if you:
- MAKE SURE YOUR COACH IS REGISTERED IN SPORTS CONNECT
- Know your assigned Team Number (e.g. 07UB03 or 10UB19).
- If you are not the Team Coach, know his or her name ("Coach Bob" won't be enough to help us if needed).
- Have a few different options on practice days and times. You might not get your first choice!
QUESTIONS?
- If you have questions or need more information contact the Region 9 Commissioner by email at [email protected]
