[quote=Anonymous]Probably 80% + of a new team is pre-determined. Most usually the previous year's side, plus one or two kids from team 2 who have shown promise. If a brand new team, then kids who have been identified by coaches from the rec. level clubs that will make up the travel side. From a tryout expect to get 15% of a team. 5% of a team will come from a "shoe-in"--a kid transferring from another team that is already known or connected to a coach such that it's a given. Final 5% is for the "Summer Messi"--that kid who moves to DC after tryouts and arrives fresh. If they can't find a Summer Messi they go to the next best kid on team 2 to fill out the side (or keep it open for the Winter Messi). [/quote]
