[quote=Anonymous]Yes it is worth trying out, getting spot on the team then assessing the situation. I know both 5th grade head coaches ask and expect ATB to be the player's top sports priority especially because so many show up for tryouts and are turned away. The coaches are trying to select the best mix of players in a short amount of time. We were in a similar situation for 5th grade and decided to accept the spot even though we anticipated future conflicts with AAU team. But, as it turned out, the AAU team disbanded abruptly (as many do) due to insufficient finances and top players leaving for other teams. If we had declined ATB, son might have skipped winter basketball or we would have been forced to find other expensive options to continue playing. That said, the coaches sometimes select practice players so that may be an option if you anticipate many ATB-AAU game conflicts for your son. Ask about that after you make a team, not before.
