[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if you know what team you want to move to, contact that coach and let him/her know your situation and see if you can bring your kid to a few practices.  They most usually say yes.  The coach will take a look and give you some feedback and that conversation will help you determine your next step.[/quote]

This is good advice.  Not only will the coach give some feedback after your child has attended a practice or two, but, if your child did well, then the coach will likely make your child an offer for one of the teams, prior to any official tryout or ID session.  There is no 24-48 hr window on these early offers, and it would give you time to have your child attend practice(s) at other clubs and see which one is the best fit.

IMO, rosters are pretty much set before any official tryout or ID session, and the main purpose of those tryouts/sessions is optics and to not miss out on someone that shows up out of the blue.  Most people that are serious about making a switch do not wait until tryouts to contact the club.[/quote]
