ETOBICOKE - The Humber Hawks softball team will host tryouts for the 2021 squad in August, as indicated by the dates provided above. Head coach Duaine Bowles will enter his fifth season at the helm and led the Hawks to the 2019 OCAA provincial title, with a career record of 69-39 (.639).
For the 2021-22 varsity season only, tryout(s) are not guaranteed and will be by invitation-only.
To be granted a tryout in a respective sport, the following must occur:
- The prospective student-athlete MUST fill out the tryout form and provide the highest level played within their sport, along with any awards received. It is also strongly encouraged to provide the coaches with a video link that will help showcase their talent. A member of the coaching staff will then determine if the prospective student-athlete warrants an opportunity to participate in an upcoming tryout date(s). Please fill out the tryout form a minimum of 48 hours before the posted dates.
If a tryout is granted, the prospective student-athlete must:
- Print off and complete a PAR-Q form that will be submitted on the first day of tryouts.
- The athlete will also be required to show proof of being fully vaccinated for Covid-19 or be able to show a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of the tryout date. Proof of being fully vaccinated was either provided at the appointment time or sent by email. For those not being able to find their vaccination receipt, please visit https://www.publichealthontario.ca/en/about/faqs.
Additional Notes:
- If a student-athlete is successful in their tryout(s), they must be fully vaccinated by September 16, 2021, to continue playing. Learn more about the Humber Department of Athletics Vaccination Policy.
- Due to Covid-19 and the policies implemented by the HDA, anyone who shows up to tryouts without fulfilling the above requirements will be denied access to tryouts for that day. If additional tryouts remain, there is a possibility to complete one on another day.
- Tryouts are closed to the public and only those invited to attend tryouts will be granted access to the facility.
