Soccer tryouts for club soccer are today from 4 to 6. I'm not as nervous as I used to get during varsity tryouts for high school which is good. Although I've played soccer for a very long time, I've never felt I was very exceptional. I'm not great at ball handling skills but I do have a powerful right- and left-foot shot and I can hard body another chick like it's nobody's businesss. I'd like to say I'm pretty well conditioned but I guess we'll find out for sure today.
I've pulled both my left and right hip flexers 2 times each during my high school varisty soccer career. I used to get blisters the size of half dollars on my heels every single preseason. My bruises lasted for weeks at a time. During a tournament scrimmage, I bruised the bones in my knee. How somebody bruises a bone, I have no idea but that's what they called it and it lasted for my entire season. No more damage could be done if I continued to play, so I played through the shooting pain and it ended up being a wonderful season regardless.

Good luck at tryouts--let us know what happens.
I'd say try not to get injured, but since I get injured all the time running and skiing, I guess I'm in no position to talk.
good luck with that...soccer...running....
good luck at tryouts julie
My boyfriends sister got a full scholarship to buffalo b/c of her soccer skills, but the summer before she went she didn't do any sort of training or even regular exercise and when she went to tryouts, she didn't make the team, so she lost the scholarship.
good luck
