Yeah, you have to pay $150 to tryout, but whatever, it might be fun. I did the Union tryouts back in 2009 alongside 500 other schlubs just to get that experience and see how I stacked up athletically compared to 500 other schlubs. I came in second place in my 15-person group in the fitness test but played like shit during the scrimmages, which I blame on my teammates.

You can register here for one of the three sessions:
