[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have an issue with tryouts but would like to see those reduced to once a year vs 2-3 times a year and would like them to start when kids are 13/14--or whatever age makes sense for the development curve for your sport. USA Hockey did a huge overall on their coaching best practices and part of that tracked youth development arcs for boys and girls. When kids are younger than a certain age, training/play is on development, but then pivots more toward competition as kids get older. Tryouts really should be timed with the competition phase.
