Seattle Sounders FC 2 hosted its second day of open tryouts for the 2016 season at Starfire Sports Complex in Tukwila on Saturday, and two players survived the cuts to join the team’s first preseason training session on Monday.
The two-day open tryout saw more than 200 trialists compete for a spot on the S2 preseason roster. According to S2 head coach Ezra Hendrickson (above), they came from far beyond just the Seattle area.
“They’re from all over,” Hendrickson said. “We’ve got guys of all ages, and all different backgrounds.”
One trialist in particular, came all the way from London for his shot at S2.
