Futures Attendance Policy
Athletes are required to attend Futures sessions at the site which is assigned
to them. Attendance at all sessions is expected. In order to be considered for
selection to the National Futures Championship, an athlete MUST attend
80% of a region’s sessions.
Athletes attending 50% or less of the ten Futures sessions will not receive an
invitation for the following year. Athletes attending 60% or less of the
scheduled Futures sessions at their assigned site will not receive Player
Evaluations at the conclusion of the Futures Program.
Athletes can have a maximum of two make-up sessions. An athlete may
attend a session(s) at another site if available. Please contact your Regional
Director for make-up sessions.
USA Field Hockey’s National Indoor Tournament is an excused absence. Athletes may also attend one qualifier as an excused absence. The date of Indoor and the date of the qualifier are excused absences only if the date conflicts with your Futures session. These events cannot be used as a makeup session. Excused absences can be made up but are not necessary to show for the 80% required attendance. Attendance forms must be signed by the Tournament Director and returned to your assigned Site Director.
Withdrawal and Refund Policy
If a player withdraws from the 2008 Futures Program before Jan. 4, 2008
