[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the intense winter swim programs are akin to travel sports but travel sports doesn’t even mean anything anymore. The companies have realized that it’s a moneymaker to admit as many kids as possible onto these teams so anyone can do travel who wants to pay for it now. Back in the day there might’ve been cuts to make the team - now they just have multiple levels of teams to give everybody who wants to participate a slot.[/quote] It depends on the sport and team. Basketball still has a brutal number of cuts. DD’s club has two teams at her age, but 50 tried out for 24 spots. There are other clubs fielding one team each per age getting similar numbers at tryouts [/quote]
