The Carolina RailHawks continue to build for the 2013 NASL season and are in search of players to join their squad. An open tryout will be held at WakeMed Soccer Park on Saturday, February 16th and Sunday, February 17th. The RailHawks open tryout has proven to be a successful tool for finding talent, including current Chicago Fire midfielder Daniel Paladini.

Players demonstrating that ability to play at the North American Soccer League level will be invited to join the RailHawks preseason camp, scheduled to begin Monday, February 18th.
