Tryouts / Team Selection Process
  • Tryouts for grade 3-11 select teams take place once a year in August at Seacoast United in Epping, NH.
  • If your child is selected, they will participate in a September - July club team program.
  • Although we do not have a grade 2 only club team option, some do “play up” in our grade 3 program. For those that are not in the club program, many participate in our leagues, camps and clinics.
  • To view a detailed outline of the club team program visit Travel Team Overview
  • In addition to select club programming, we offer seasonal clinics and leagues.
Are you looking for new players?
  • We are looking to select the best players. Your player will have a completely fair opportunity to make a Houlagan team.
  • If your player did not tryout the year before or was not in our program the year before, it will have zero impact on their chances of making a Houlagan roster.

Fall 2022 - Summer 2023 Teams

  • We look to have 2 teams per grade for both boys and girls.
  • We have teams from 2033 (Grade 2) to 2023 (Grade 12).
Tournament Team Assignment Process
  • Two teams will be selected after tryouts, GREEN (1st team) and CAROLINA (2nd team),
  • Players will compete with this team throughout the entire year.
  • We allow for team movement prior to the start of each session to allow for player growth.
  • Rather than select 24-26 players per team like other club programs, we select 38-42 players after tryouts and break into two tournament teams (GREEN & CAROLINA: 18-20 players per team).
  • Every player selected will be guaranteed all fall and summer tournaments.
  • We will offer additional "tournament alternate" spots to players that would jump in for tournaments for injuries or conflicts. "Tournament Alternates" will participate in all training.
