Reading Express Practice Facility Secured and Announces First Open Try-Out Date
08/13/08 - American Indoor Football Association (AIFA) Reading Express
The Reading Express is pleased to announce that they have again come to terms with Grand Slam Sports Complex as the "Official" practice facility of the Reading Express for the 2009 Season. Grand Slam will provide The Express with a full season of practice slots for both the regular season and play-offs (hopefully needed). Grand Slam will also provide The Express with dates for open try-out camps as well as our up-coming Kids Camps and of course our Pre-Season Camp.
The Reading Express will be holding its first Open Try-Out on Saturday October 25, 2008 at Grand Slam. Registration will begin at 10am. Try-Outs will start at 11am and run until 2pm. We ask that any kickers interested in trying out please register at 9:45am, we will look at kickers between 10 and 11 for short range kicks, extra points, kick offs and onsides kicks.
What to expect between 11am and 2pm! We will first stretch and loosen up. We will then divide into four groups for individual testing. The four tested areas will be: 40 yard dash (2 attempts) Pro Shuttle (2 attempts) Vertical Jump (2 attempts) 225 Bench Press (1 time max reps). After testing is complete we will break up into individual position groups to evaluate your position skills. We will have 1 on 1 passing and blocking session as well as 5 on 5 and 8 0n 8 sessions.
What you need to know! You need to wear proper work out attire (Look Professional and Ready to Work-Out). There are rest rooms at GSSC, but no locker rooms. NO SPIKES of any kind on the Grand Slam surface. It is a short carpet like turf. A good pair of sneakers or turf shoes will do just fine. We will have our medical staff from CATC on hand for any taping or medical needs. You will be signing a medical waiver at registration. There will be a $50 cost for the main try-out. Kickers will have a $40 charge for their 10am-11am work-out. Credit Cards and Cash will be the only acceptable form of payment...NO CHECKS. The fee you pay also cover's you for the next two Express open try-outs if you wish to work out again and improve on your first performance.
