[quote=Anonymous]If your DS is trying out for 5th grade, and probably 6th, don't skip any days because so many (100?) show up to fill the 2 teams, 20 slots (plus a few practice players). The division 1 and 2 coaches plus other coach evaluators send players from one end of the gym to the other, but sometimes initially miss a strong player. Based on past experience, your DS will want to end up on the farthest (from the street) end of the gym. Sometimes, players aren't sent to the farthest end until the 2nd or 3rd day. And as PPs have said, rumor has it that some players are preselected in advance via the gole ole boys daddyball network. When our DS was trying out for 5th grade, DH was hanging around outside of the Kenmore gym on the 1st or 2nd day waiting and was certain he overheard several dads next to him discussing WHO would be on the "A team" this year!
