[quote=Anonymous]I was at a tryout for a travel club recently and was wondering this for my son who is trying out for the club for the first time.  It was a zoo.  I don't have a good sense of how many kids were there, but maybe 70?  Probably 2/3 were with the club this year so trying out for team placement and the remaining 1/3 are trying out for the first time.  I do not know how the coaches could possibly determine not only which kids make the club, but where to place them watching the 4X4 scrimmages for an hour or so.  For the current players, they obviously know because they've been with the club all year, but how about the new kids?  The kids had numbers but no one really seemed to be taking notes or anything.  This is a fairly young age so it is hard to believe that they are getting recommendations from other coaches (most of which probably are rec) but the team placement of any "new" players who make the club has to be pretty random.  (Although my son is big so it sounds like he had going for him...)
