[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the school! Which school? There's a huge difference in difficulty on making the basketball team somewhere like Westfield vs. somewhere like Annandale. If its a school where a lot of boys play freshman football, those kids aren't allowed to participate in the green days. So they will show up the first day of tryouts and your son won't have seen them before. Some schools do a bad job communicating about the green days and kids don't know about them, and those kids also show up for tryouts. If he's not one of the best players with only 8-12 kids showing up for fall workouts, he's on the bubble. Since he's a "show up" kid, he should work that angle for the tryouts First one in line for the drills, 100% focused, doing all the stuff coaches like right (always boxing out, communicating on the court, playing hard defense). Even the biggest schools will have one spot on the freshman bench for a really likable, coachable kid with some skill. [/quote]
