[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anybody know which tier 3 clubs had good tryout results for their U15-U18 age groups? Anybody heard how it went for tier 1 clubs?[/quote]

Not sure what you mean by 'good tryout' results in this question. Good for the club or good for the players? Only a few clubs have posted rosters so harder to gauge unless you know a lot of players and their results by word of mouth, instagram posts etc.

Based on prior posts and what we know of DDs friends and acquaintances/teammates etc, the Tier 3 clubs also have larger rosters and some with good players going to their tryouts and some landing there if they did not get of the alternate list of Tier 1/2 clubs. BRYC looked like there was some movement either kids moving laterally and coming together as a result of HS or other word of mouth to be potentially stronger, we know others that used to play tier 1/2 also did tryouts at or moved over to others such as American, Metro regional (eg central). StJ seriously increased their roster sizes and changed some players in and out - eg StJ 15s went from 10 players last year to 15 this year with a partial exodus of players taking themselves off to ECP together along with some friends from other teams. ECP 2s and 3s teams are likely much stronger than prior years.

So in general, just seemed to be a lot of shifting. Guessing last year was first year people were coming out of COVID where prior years the players were staying put more. This year was an explosion and shifts as players either tried to move up to align with HS grade or some decided to stay back with grade and play the same age group a second year which then caused more shifts for players that they were going to rise into the next age group team and had to find new homes. Lots of strong players ended up in limbo as Tier 1 alternate players but Tier 2/3s went for more 'sure thing' or 'returning' type yields or the Tier 1s maybe didn't attend enough Tier 2s to have firm backups.

A roster of 15 is a recipe for disaster. [/quote]
