[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If all the tryouts for your child's age are completed, for a sport with multiple teams per age group and if you don't hear anything for the next few days, turn down the offer, right? Because that means your kid is like the last pick and will be sitting on the bench? [/quote]

If you get a really late offer for Not The Bottom Team, then yes. If the late offer is for the worst team, then they may have just done that team last after filling all the spots on the first three teams. I wouldn't assume your kid is a benchwarmer on the last team. The last teams are usually pretty terrible.[/quote]

Agree with this. Being on the worst team for a big business is a bad deal. Much better to be on the first or second team for a smaller org. [/quote]

The kids on the lowest teams just want to play with their friends and say they play "travel" soccer. The teams are basically rec-level teams playing other rec-level teams. The parents don't really care if their kid could be getting more attention/better training at another place. They are just paying the travel prices to keep their kid active and with their friends.
