[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious about how the tryout offer and acceptance procedures work for soccer.

When a player is accepted by a club, do they also let you know what team that player will be on (i.e team A, B, C...etc) immediately? or do they accept the player and ask to him/her to join another tryout to identify which team he/she will be placed on? If it's the latter how have you decided which club your child will play with if you have more than offer at the same time without knowing which team they will be placed on, especially since you have around 48 hours to decide? Thanks[/quote]

In most cases you are told what the team your kid will be placed. It does depend on the club. But generally the larger the club, I.E. 3+ teams per age group, you will be told what team.

Also, the 48 hour rule is generally only loosely enforced in larger clubs at the high level teams. This is more a function of practicality than anything else. Essentially there are always bubble kids who they can't make offers to until the roster is fleshed out. If a player is a bubble A/B team player they might get an offer to the A team if a kid or two turns the A team offer down. Most coaches will give you some time to think about it if you are able to contact them directly. In nearly all cases they will contact you on or after the second day if you haven't already accepted.[/quote]
