  • How is a player selected for a KAFC team?
    All current KAFC players must tryout each year along with the players new to the club. Players are evaluated by KAFC coaches.

    Any child that wants to play up in age must obtain permission from the Director of Coaching. Please review our play-up policy for more information.
  • Can my child be a “training only” player?
    Yes. Kitsap Alliance will determine each request on an individual basis with the final decision at the discretion of the Director of Coaching with feedback from the team coach. Players will register as a “training only” player and be required to pay the monthly fee associated with this service. To register for an evaluation please use our registration system.
