  • When do the different seasons start/end?
    Fall season starts in September and ends in November Summer season starts mid-May and ends in July Tryouts for the next season start at the end of July Winter activities are offered December, January, and early February Spring practices for elementary and middle school age teams begin in late February/early March (weather permitting) and go through May
  • Where are practices held?
    We use a variety of locations to maximize field space for each team. Practice location will be solidified at the beginning of each year, and will remain constant until the next year. Locations we use are: George Mason University, South County High School, Great Falls Nike Park, Gainesville High School, Battlefield High School, and Brentsville High School. Clinics and Camps will be hosted at these locations as well.​
  • Who are the coaches?
    Each team will be staffed with a head coach and an assistant coach. Each of our coaches have been carefully selected to be sure they will be knowledgeable, supportive, and encouraging of their players. The wide variety of experience and perspective are what keeps the coaching staff highly competitive.​
  • Do you have a recruiting director
    Yes! Our recruiting director is Keriann McTavish. Keriann played at VCU for 5 years and graduated in 2021. She's excited to be here to help our girls continue their passion in college!
  • Will this conflict with School Sports or Rec Sports in the Fall/Spring?​
    We do our best to not conflict with any high school or rec sports in the fall and spring. We understand our athletes may participate in other sports or activities at school, and we try to be as accommodating as possible. We encourage participation in other school and rec activities. While conflicts can sometimes occur, we try our hardest to curate schedules for each team that allow each player to participate in whatever she chooses.
  • Are practices mandatory?
    Yes, YJMA practices are mandatory. We expect every player to attend practice to increase team bonding, team development, and overall growth. We do understand that other commitments exist, and players may not be able to attend every practice, especially during the fall season when our athletes are encouraged to play other sports for their high school. We work hard to accommodate schedules, and expect that when a player cannot attend a practice, they work in their own time to make up for the missed practice.​ We also communicate that several missed practices may result in decreased playing time at tournaments.
  • Will practice be held in extreme weather conditions?
    With the exception of thunder and lightning, we try to keep practice going. This is simply because tournaments will play through different weather conditions as rescheduling these events is very difficult. We will practice in order to prepare for the off chance tournaments are held in rain, wind, cold, or hot temperatures. ​
  • How does the team communicate with the coaches?
    We use TeamSnap to organize each team. You can communicate with other people on the team, with the whole team, and with the coaches. You can also see your practice and tournament schedules, as well as the roster. TeamSnap subscription is included in YJ dues.​
  • Can I use the coaches for private lessons?
    ABSOLUTELY! Most of our coaches provide private lessons for individual players or small groups of players in their free time. Cost may vary by coach or by amount of players, so reach out to your coach or to Audrey Hoeg if you would like to inquire about lessons. We have coaches that specialize in all positions, including goalie trainers.​
  • Do you offer refunds?
    Refunds are certainly possible, but are determined on a case by case basis. Injuries, and family emergencies may be subject to a refund. Most cases will require payment for the time period the player participated in, but either a stoppage of charges or refund for the time period they will not be participating in. EX: Player participates in the fall season, gets hurt during the spring, and can no longer play in the summer. Player will not receive a refund for the fall, but may receive a refund for the summer. Choosing to discontinue play may not be subject to a refund. If you believe you need a refund, contact Audrey Hoeg.
  • Can I only pay for certain seasons or tournaments?
    The fee is the yearly fee regardless of how much your player plans to participate in. We do not offer partial payments for seasons or tournaments.​
