[quote=Anonymous]It would depend on the team and their needs.

Some of it might be the quality of the club/team as well.

The way we see it now, is that it's kind of hard to get kids onto some teams at older ages (MS).  Where a lot of teams have been playing together for several years.  So there are very few spots that opens up for new players to try to get.  There might be better chances if the team plays in mixed grade levels and a good portion of players moved onto the higher grade level.

There are some teams/clubs that take everyone and they just make more teams for that season.  But then you have to question their quality of play.  We know one family who joined a club like that and mentioned that their team was regularly in last place. And the next season I saw they had their kid back in rec.

I'm a big believer in defense wins games.  But you really need to impress coaches at tryouts.  And there are probably people that can play tough defense and score.

But it also doesn't hurt to try.  So you can always send your daughter to tryouts and at the very least see what areas she needs to work and improve on for the next time tryouts come around.[/quote]
