In your email please include: your player's first and last name, their year of birth, and some general information about them (how long they have been playing soccer, what positions they like to play etc.).

If, as one of the earlier threads suggested, BSC has already given out invites for roster spots on their top teams, are these external tryouts only for their 2nd teams and below? We're interested in the U12-U14 age-group.

The top academy teams will always take good players. They will quickly replace a player on the roster at any time for one that is better.

That is not even true. Who writes this stuff. The replacing would have already happened. The are not taking away spots on already full teams.

It seems pretty likely BSC would reserve a few spots for transfers on top teams. I really doubt that top teams are already full.

This is correct. There are a couple spots open on ECNL1 rosters.

None of the ECNL1 teams in those age groups are over 16 girls for next year. They are saving a couple spots for the outside tryouts. Roster won't exceed 18 for those ages

The Academy teams replace kids during the middle of the season or anytime. They have kids practice with them throughout the season and yes, kids get dropped to the lower team mid season. This is not true for the lower teams but true for the Academy team.

Most coaches leave 1-2 spots open for an incoming "Messi" they didn't see and don't want to miss, but by and large the 'cattle call' will be for kids to go on 2nd and 3d teams at a big club like this.

We are members on the U12-U14 Girls side. Coach Dave Greene will place girls on top team if they are talented. That is FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE and cannot be debated. He purposely has left a couple roster spots open for each team. He also said he will move weaker/less dedicated players down if need be.

I cannot speak for other ages however. Hope this helps.

^^^ any outside player hoping for a spot on the ecnl 1 team would have to be a standout player- better than the top 5 players currently on the team.

Sounds like a bottom player ECNL parent trying to hold on to a roster spot for their kid.

+1. What the PP said made no sense. All the player has to be is better than any of the starting 11.

+1. Would agree with information. Also keep in mind at younger ages - kids change a lot. Don’t let “top” players already on team currently mean there is not room for change.
