[quote=Anonymous]Tryouts often begin with the entire group of players dribbling through and around an open area as the coach calls out techniques (e.g., "outside left") and moves. It's at least possible for players to begin making a good impression by controlling the ball well and moving quickly and without stopping during the warmup. In terms of the small-sided games, talent will probably reveal itself eventually, or not, and there's not much anyone can do about that now, but kids who are vocal in communicating with their teammates, are confident in holding the ball under pressure, and who take it upon themselves to defend the goal will often stand out. At some tryouts there are untimed sprint races and juggling sessions as well as the warmup and small-sided games. When your kid gets promoted to a higher field, your hopes may rise; when he's sent to the end of the park you may feel slightly worse, but keep it all in perspective. There may not be many open spots actually available, even at U9, and there are other clubs to try out for.[/quote]
