Cap City Athletic 1847 will offer teams for boys and girls from U8 to U19. There is a possibility we will form multiple teams in all age groups.  Cap City is interested in quality over quantity.

We are looking for players who want to develop to the highest of their capabilities. We want to create teams that can compete at the highest levels in the state of Michigan and the Midwest region of the United States.

2026-2027 Player Evaluations and Tryouts will be held throughout the Spring in accordance with the rules and regulations of the different leagues our teams participate in. 

All players should register for tryouts in their proper AGE GROUP. We will take the grade of a player into consideration and help guide those families to the best developmental decision for their child.  

Tryout registration will become active as the dates and times for the different age groups and levels of play are finalized. To register, create an account or log in through PlayMetrics and sign up for 2026-2027 tryouts. Online tryout registration will be required for all participants. This is the only way we know for sure that you are interested in playing for Cap City during the 2026-2027 season.

All players and/or parents/guardians will be notified of their selection to a Cap City Athletic 1847 team onsite during tryouts. Players and Parents/Guardians are asked to be prepared to commit to an offer onsite or within 24 hours of your offer. Cap City Athletic 1847's primary goal is to have each child playing at the competitive level appropriate to his or her current ability.

We will hold multiple ID Sessions and Tryout dates throughout the 2026 Spring Season. Offers of placement will be made at each tryout session in accordance with league rules, so it is in a player's best interest to prioritize the teams and clubs they most want to play for and make it to those sessions.

Schedules will be posted here and on our social media channels as they are finalized. Please check back frequently or follow us on Facebook and Instagram for updates!

If you have any questions about the tryout process or which team might be right for your player, please contact us at admin@capcityathletic.com.
