2017/18 Annual Meeting Lafayette Dash Elite Team Formation Dynamo Juniors Girls now: Lafayette Dash The Dynamo Juniors and Lafayette Dash are happy to announce new team formations and partnerships for the 2017-2018 soccer season. All girls teams with the Dynamo Juniors organization will now be officially affiliated with the Houston Dash NWSL team. This marks a huge step in the development of the girls side of our club and will be a partnership that benefits all involved. Dash girls will now be given more opportunities to play in front of the professional staff of the Houston Dash organization both clubs will be working hard to promote youth soccer and make sure that the Lafayette Dash girls get the best exposure to high level coaching and play. Dynamo Juniors and Lafayette Dash Elite Team formation The Dynamo Juniors and the Lafayette Dash will be changing the way that teams are organized and formed. As of the 2017/18 season both sides of the club will be looking to form ELITE teams, this will be the top players selected from a combination of 2 birth years. This season will be looking to combine: 2003 and 2004 15U Lafayette Dash 15U ELITE; Dynamo Juniors 15U ELITE 2001 and 2002 17U Lafayette Dash 17U ELITE; Dynamo Juniors 17U ELITE 1999 and 2000 19U Lafayette Dash 19U ELITE; Dynamo Juniors 19U ELITE Beneath this the Dynamo Juniors and Lafayette Dash will be looking to form CLUB teams, club teams will be made up from players that didn't quite make the criteria to be selected for ELITE but are wanting to push themselves to reach a higher level by training hard and developing within the Dynamo Juniors and Lafayette Dash systems. ELITE and CLUB teams will only affect players born from 2004 onwards. ALL Dynamo and Dash players must try out with the appropriate age group, NOT the age group they wish to play in.

By combining age groups at 14/15, 16/17 and 18/19s the Lafayette Dash and Dynamo Juniors will be able to align themselves better with the Houston Dash and Houston Dynamo US Developmental Academy teams. The ELITE Program features combined age groups where identified players can "play up" within the club structure, as encouraged by club staff. The Lafayette Dash and Dynamo Juniors will be looking for our ELITE players to dedicate more of their time and effort into practices focusing on playing more meaningful games. Our ELITE teams will allow our coaches to take on a much more player centered experience increasing the level of technical execution through a good balance of training and games. Dynamo Juniors and Lafayette Dash Elite Team formation What we expect from ELITE players: ELITE team rosters will NOT be frozen Dynamo/Dash will be able to promote CLUB player up to Elite and Elite coaches will be able to drop players to the CLUB roster if players do not meet our expectations. Training Days: Each ELITE team is expected to hold at least three training sessions per week while the team is competing, players MUST attend all sessions to remain eligible. (excused absences include, religious events, sickness, mandatory nonsporting school function) Game Days: Our ELITE teams will look to play in HIGH level tournaments across the region, coaching staff will make decisions based on each teams level as to whether to compete in local and/or regional leagues. Commitment: We expect all of our players at the ELITE level to attend all team events. ALL practices and games (friendlies, league or tournaments) are mandated. Soccer comes first: All other athletic activities must not interfere with ELITE team practices and games.
