[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of the teams holding tryouts now have 2 teams so be sure to find out if your kid made the A team or B team. In some cases, the A team simply consists of existing players and coaches (and may plan for some out-of-town tournaments) but the newer B team may be as good depending on the skill level at the tryouts and coach.

AND... your kid may be one of the first picks but still end up as a bencher if the coach only plays favorites and bigs 75+ percent of every game. In fact, the coaches holding early tryouts will snag the top talent yet may end up benching 5 very good guards! (ask me how I know)

Are the later tryout teams easier to get on since the better players are already on a team?

My kid got cut from Beltway Ballerz. I think my kid was borderline and my kid swears he is equal or better than some kids already on the team. I have learned that you have to be a standout and coach will not replace a bench with a new bench.[/quote]

Were you cut from the 7th grade team?  I heard that the 6th and 7th have a lot of talent.[/quote]
