[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has Spirit made any offers to existing roster players? We haven't heard any timeline about plans for the fall season and who is staying or going.[/quote]

Offers do not get made until June.

Only outside non-current DA players can/will get offers.[/quote]

June?  Where did you get that date from?  We've always received offers sooner than that. [/quote]

Because that is when offers to current players were made last year. That is where I effing heard that date from. Outside, non-DA kids can get offers at anytime. [/quote]

I'm with Spirit and we got our letters ahead of that.  In fact, the whole club got announcements of when offers would be made to current players and it was well ahead of June.  I'm sorry that hurts your feelings.  [/quote]

Then offer the rough date when you got the offer and answer the actual question then.[/quote]

Beginning of May.  That's why I asked you where June came from, in case that was the plan for this year.  It wasn't to offend or attack.  I don't read every single email I get from Spirit, so I thought I'd missed one.

This year, I would like to see the process improve.  Tom held out because he wanted to get everyone he could and then redistribute the rosters as he saw fit, right or wrong.  Maybe he was told to.  I can't say.

[b]I want greater transparency this year.  I want to know who is on my DD's roster or I want to take her somewhere that will tell me.  It matters because the roster determines the training environment. [/quote][/b]

This. I’d like to see what players are committed as that will make a huge impact on our decision. Are they actually DA caliber or not.[/quote]

How about you talk to the other parents on your team and see what their views are.  They may not tell you outright (some will), but I think you can get a good sense based on their comments and facial expressions.  [/quote]

I’d rather find out who the club intends to keep, rather than what parents/kids want to stay. Those that want to stay may not be DA caliber kids. If the rosters are actually going to be trimmed, I want to know where. [/quote]

Agreed. Also tells us nothing about the kids they intend to add from tryouts.[/quote]
