Combine FAQ's

 

Can I pay cash and sign up on the day?
We cannot accept payment on the day at the fields as we schedule the event, including players and teams, 48 hours in advance of game one to ensure the event runs smoothly. It would be logistically difficult to plan an event whilst not being sure exactly how many players are going to turn up. Also, our combines sell out on average 2-3 weeks in advance therefore there will be no availability by day one. We recommend players sign up early to avoid disappointment.

When is the deadline to pay?
Registration for our combines close 24 hours before the event starts. However we usually sell out well in advance of day one. Once we are sold out we cannot accept any players regardless of their resume. Our goalkeeper and attacking spots are always first to sell out so we recommend goalkeepers sign up as early as possible.

Who can attend PSC tryouts?
PSC tryouts are open to players aged 15 and older of all levels—from academy and collegiate players to free agents and experienced professionals.

What should I bring to the tryout?
Players should bring black shorts, black socks, a white top (unless enrolled in the VIP package), shin guards, boots, water, and any personal items needed for training.

What happens if I get injured or can't attend?
If you are unable to attend due to injury, emergency, or any other reason, you will be eligible to attend any PSC tryout within the next 12 months for just $50 if you give 5 days notice by email.

Does the fee include hotel and transport, or airport shuttles?
The registration fee does not include hotel and transport, players are responsible for all travel.
