[quote=Anonymous]My child’s travel organization held tryouts for next year’s team (season starts in August) the week before my child’s team’s last tournament for this season. The team didn’t even practice, just had tryouts. For reasons irrelevant to my question, the organization combined ages and my child’s was the youngest birth year included (MS age). My child was cut along with at least 1 other from their current team. They are, of course, devastated. It’s an out of town tournament (went from fun to dreading) and will not have any team activities before the first game. I’ve been friendly with the other parents. The kids have played together for multiple years. Questions will be asked: “how’s your kid doing?” “Plans for next year? etc.” I have no interest in answering them, but have to remain friendly. There’s not another travel program in our small town. My child still loves the sport and we will see them again. My child will probably tryout again next year. What are some lines that I can use where I don’t sound snarky while also not answering the questions? [/quote]
