Sometime next week, per an email they sent out to all current families.
OP here -- thank you! Does anyone know if there have been callbacks for another look thus far?
Yes, callbacks have been happening. Additionally, ASA sent out this email last week:

What age? 09 girls have received initial offers, but I don't know anyone who has received a "decline" yet.
Most Arlington travel teams practice as least once a week at Long Bridge. If that works for you, I'd go for it.
We went from ADP to trying out for both McLean and Arlington. Arlington has more teams so numbers-wise it could be in her favor. This is also when they move to the larger field with bigger rosters. We ended up going with McLean and have had a good experience. Our DD's friends are on Arlington, McLean, PAC and Vienna.
Last year we heard our no within a few days. Then, a few weeks later a few players were invited to some practices (from what hear, some players left that they were not anticipating and they needed additional players). Typically Arlington fills the very skilled players on top teams and the rest of the kids fill from the bottom up (meaning your kid may make the bottom team but you feel they are better than that). Then over time, those players move up in the organization if they see improvement. Good luck!

ARLINGTON, Va. (Dec. 21, 2022) – After years of service to the Arlington Soccer Association, coaches Edu de Souza, Eddie Lima and Matt Badiee will be leaving at the end of the month to assume senior leadership roles with the DC Soccer Club.
“Though we are sad to see them go,” Arlington Soccer Executive Director Frank DeMarco said, “we are happy for all three to take on expanded leadership roles. They have been members of our coaching staff the last several years and we are very grateful for their dedication and commitment to Arlington Soccer, providing our players with a great soccer experience and helping them develop as individuals on and off the field.”

Capstone- they are great with conditioning, strengthening and fast decision making. They have Falls Church (on Arlington Border), Merrifield and Baileys Crossroads locations.
