You would know the kid wasn't at your school because he would be late for all your immediately-after-school activities, and you would get a list at tryouts of all the students grades and schools because they have to register ahead of time.[/quote]

Not the same in every sport, every kid. I am not worried at all about my kid making the team next year. [/quote]

Sure some sports are no cut, and [b]girls sports are easy to make[/b]. [/quote]

That's not true at all. Girls sports are very competitive in Fairfax County. [/quote]

They are incredibly easy to make compared to boys sports. [/quote]

DP and girl dad. Boys sports easily have twice the number of kids trying to make the team as girls sports, so yes the girls sports are much easier to make the cut.  If you can't see and admit this reality due to your ego or some other reason, then there is no logical way to reach you.[/quote]

At our large fcps, some sports have four times as many boys trying out. Girls can make teams with no experience or only rec league play. Boys who have played club for years get cut from JV. [/quote]

In the case where there are 130 kids trying out, unless the freshman boy is a star he’s probably going to be cut anyway. 
Smaller high schools, rec leagues, and intramurals would help keep more kids in sports. [/quote]
