Hello Lady Vikings Soccer family,

Fall Season kicks off this week with Team Camp, Monday August 12 through Thursday August 15 from 4:30-6:30pm at Barrick Field! There is no registration or fee required to participate – players may just show up in their soccer gear for fun games, team building exercises, skills improvement, and of course, soccer! Team Camp is not mandatory but all student-athletes interested in playing in the 2019 fall season should do their best to attend.

Then the season begins for real the following week with TRYOUTS, beginning Monday August 19 and running through Friday August 23 if needed. Be sure to sign up with an up-to-date physical (they are good for two years) before the first session and don’t forget that all sessions are mandatory from the 19th onward. We are hoping to have teams figured by the end of Wednesday’s session so join on time and attend every practice. Players who may need to miss sessions must communicate with coaches.

TRYOUT WEEK SCHEDULE
Monday 8/19: 4:30-6:30pm at Barrick Field
Tuesday 8/20 (DOUBLE DAY): 10:00-11:15am & 4:45-6:30pm at Barrick Field
Wednesday 8/21: 4:30-6:30pm at Barrick Field

Hello Lady Vikings Soccer family,

Happy end of the school year! While your classes in the building may be wrapping up, soccer continues through the summer – here’s the current practice schedule through July (or view on the calendar):

All incoming freshmen and current and interested Lady Vikings Soccer are welcome and encouraged to attend. Out-of-season development is crucial to reaching our potential in official Fall Season competition, so do your best to get out there and play!

We are also looking at adding other soccer events on Fridays or in place of some practices, such as scrimmage or small-sided competition days with other schools, so check for updates regularly.

See you out on the field and GO VIKS!

It’s time to get back out on the field with Lady Vikings Soccer! Practices start on April 15 and run through the end of May before we change to a summer schedule. For now ALL PRACTICES are 7:00-8:30pm in NSHS stadium on the turf field. Practice days currently scheduled are:

Mondays: 4/15, 4/22, 5/6, 5/13, 5/20, 5/27
Wednesdays: 4/17, 4/24, 5/22, 5/29
Fridays: 5/3

All 2018 Lady Vikings Soccer players and any NSHS students or incoming 2019 freshmen/current 8th graders are welcome and encouraged to attend. Unless already invited, younger players in 7th grade and below should check in with Coach Erik before showing up, and anyone may reach out to ask questions.

See you out on the field – GO VIKS!

After a hard-fought season in a new league, Lady Vikings Soccer have four Varsity players receiving Mid-Willamette Conference all-league honors. Those players are:

SECOND TEAM ALL-LEAGUE:
Elizabeth Hernandez (So., Midfielder/Forward)

HONORABLE MENTION:
Valentina Santos (Sr., Midfielder)
Jacquelyn Alvarez (Jr., Goalkeeper)
Vanessa Bravo (Fr., Defender)

In addition, four players received recognition for their excellent work in the classroom as Varsity student-athletes. Our all-league academic award winners are:
Valentina Santos (Sr.)
Jacquelyn Alvarez (Jr.)
Daisy Montes (Jr.)
Esmeralda Botello (So.)

Congratulations to our outstanding student-athletes, and thank you to all Lady Vikings Soccer players, parents, and staff for a great season!

Until next year,
GO VIKS!

Because of poor air quality we are unable to practice outside today – instead we will be practicing in the main building. Players should meet at 5:00 in the hallway next to the small gyms, and bring soccer shoes appropriate for indoor play (or trainers/running/tennis shoes).

Hello Lady Vikings Soccer family,

The 2018 fall season is right around the corner! First up is Team Camp this week and the schedule is as follows:

Monday 8/6: 5:00-7:00pm
Tuesday 8/7: 5:00-7:00pm
Wednesday 8/8: 5:00-7:00pm
Thursday 8/9: 5:00-7:00pm

All team camp sessions are at Barrick Field. Camp is free to attend this year and not required, but strongly encouraged so players can practice their skills and build fitness heading into tryouts.

Speaking of TRYOUTS, those are coming up just next week! Here’s this year’s tryout schedule:

Monday 8/13: 5:00-7:00pm
Tuesday 8/14: 10:00-11:15am & 5:15-7:00pm
Wednesday 8/15: 5:00-7:00pm
Thursday 8/16: 10:00-11:15am & 5:15-7:00pm
Friday 8/17: 5:00-7:00pm

All tryout sessions are at Barrick Field and attendance is mandatory! Players missing any tryout sessions must communicate with coaches and agree to complete make-up work in order to be placed with a team. Please note that Tuesday and Thursday are double days, meaning there are two mandatory tryout sessions on each of those days.

So, what do you need for tryouts? Players must have an up-to-date sports physical (here/español) that are good for two years, and completed high school athletic packet which includes an athletic agreement (here/español), athletic participation form (here/español), and concussion risk acknowledgement (here/español) and turn all forms into the North Salem High School main office along with the athletics fee. Players must bring proof they’re eligible to play to the first session, and should wear shin guards and a white t-shirt.

More info will follow soon about further practices and the fall game schedule – for now, let’s focus on getting everyone out on the field and playing these next two weeks.

If you have any questions contact a coach and we’ll help you out.

Let’s have a great year and GO VIKS!

Happy summer everyone! With the end of the school year comes the start of summer soccer and preparations for the fall season. Practices most weeks are Monday/Wednesday/Friday from 3:00-4:30pm on the turf field in the NSHS stadium, but be sure to check the schedule for any changes.

Here’s the summer league game schedule:

Locations (Google Maps): North Salem HS, McMinnville HS, Dayton HS, Blanchet HS

It’s still possible to play if you aren’t yet signed up! Attend the first game and bring your completed sign-up form to get involved. Those attending games should wear soccer shoes (turf or cleats), black shorts and black socks, and shin guards. Jerseys will be provided at the games by coaches.

For those not playing summer league, you can and should still attend practices. Don’t forget to invite your friends who are interested in joining.

See you at the fields, and GO VIKS!

Spring soccer is here!

As we look towards the 2018 summer and fall seasons, we’re back out on the field through the end of the school year. The following off-season practices are currently scheduled (updated 5/22):
