[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I signed my DS up for a few tryouts at different clubs.  Today we received an offer from our top choice. Should we let clubs that we have registered with that we iwll not attend? Is there a way to do so? Or is it not necessary in that they won't even notice/care, given the large number of kids attending tryouts?[/quote]

Similar situation for my son.  We are still going to other trainings/tryouts because it's always good to be seen and build relationships.  Things can change and the soccer community is small.   [/quote]

If you have accepted with your offer, i wouldn't go to the other tryouts.  That is wasting their time, not "building relationships"

BS.  Just because you accept an offer because a club's tryout is early doesn't mean anything.  A kid should always look out for themselves first.  Clubs have zero loyalty to kids.  All you lose is the security deposit.  If clubs wanted things to be fair, schedule all tryouts within 10 days and all offers are valid until 48 hours after the final club tryout.[/quote]

Well, if the new club knows you continued to try out, they'd be pissed.  The other teams finding out you tried out after accepting an offer, pissed.  It isn't about loyalty.  If you have accepted an offer, don't go to another tryout.  If you haven't, do what you like.  But would never go after accepting an offer.  Makes zero sense.  [/quote]

maybe we have different experiences, but why would anybody be pissed.  It's kids playing soccer with other kids in different settings.  Coaches understand this.  I think parents are projecting here.  [/quote]
