[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m saying I know personally of spots offered to kids right after tryouts and make no mistake that these clubs are a BUSINESS. Tryout registration is $50 or $40 per player. The more people that try out the more revenue it generates even if the club knows that a lot of the returning players plus a couple more will be the ones on the roster this year. I’m not saying don’t try-I’m saying be aware and set expectations accordingly. [/quote]

Yeah, my girl was one who was offered a spot after tryouts twice this last round (for regional, not travel). But you know what else? She was new to these teams. So she showed up and it worked out.  I know we were very lucky, but my point is that even if the clubs have penciled in who their rosters are already and are going for the money grab with tryouts, do you really think if they see someone in tryouts that they think they need on their team they're going to NOT offer it to them? They are keeping a few spots flexible just in case.

You just never know is the point.  So point taken that it is a business, but also because it's a business it's highly unlikely they are holding tryouts with EVERY SINGLE SPOT on each team already with offers made. They keep their options open at least a bit.[/quote]
