[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you end up of the bottom court of a tryout there could be a bunch of reasons: the club doesn't need your position, the coach prefers someone else, you don't have the physical "stats" they are looking for, your DD's energy lagged, a skill wasn't good, etc. And sometimes it's just luck, they see you for a small period of time in a large group of people and if you aren't standing out right then they move on to someone else.

There’s a difference between starting with all the girls in one place and then being sorted to other courts based on observations of at least a little play, vs being sorted to courts at very beginning of tryouts and never having anyone give you a chance to show much skill because everyone else on court was a beginner and no o e seemed to really care about your court.

There’s also a difference between feeling slighted and not getting over it, vs. engaging in a convo about tryout experiences and just sharing what you know. The 2 girls I was referencing in the post you responded to who were started and kept on the bottom court (never observed in a bigger group) each got offers at teams they were happy with that round of tryouts. So they were good and no one was bitter. But being started and left on a bottom court will feel like a waste of money to most if you were never on a court at all with real eyes on you so no one should be surprised at a club that does that if some people make sure to never try out there again.[/quote]
