VANCOUVER, BC – On Saturday afternoon, 137 players will look to impress Alan Koch and the rest of the WFC2 technical staff during the first day of WFC2 Open Tryout presented by adidas.
The hopefuls will be split into two groups with the first group set to hit the UBC Thunderbird Stadium pitch at 3:30 p.m. PT, with the second to follow at 6 p.m. PT. On Sunday, the second and final day, a select group of players will be invited back for the 11 a.m. PT scrimmage.
At least one participant will be invited to take part in WFC2 preseason training camp and be given an opportunity to earn a spot on the inaugural WFC2 roster. The list of players - see below – includes 14 goalkeepers, 23 defenders, 51 midfielders, and 49 strikers. The majority of trialists currently reside in Metro Vancouver but there will be participants arriving from Alberta, Ontario, Washington, Oregon, Florida, and as far away as Brazil and France.
There are former Whitecaps FC Residency players (including Olamide Ajibike, Coulton Jackson, Mason James, and Carlos Marquez), Canadian youth internationals, as well as professionals who have played throughout the world including Burundi, Congo, Denmark, France, Greece, Italy, Mexico, Romania, Tanzania, Ukraine, and Venezuela.
One player played a FIFA World Cup qualifier for the Bahamas (Connor Sheehan), while another is a member of the Sweden national futsal team (Peiman Pahlevan).
Needless to say, it will be interesting two days at the Point Grey campus and for at least one player an opportunity that may completely change their life.
