[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you’ve gotten a lot of really dumb answers from parents who obviously have never been in this situation.  In basketball, for example, in the DMV, there are 5 teams that are in the top 25 nationally, so claiming that your kid must be terrible if there’s a question about making the team just demonstrates those parents’ ignorance.

Likewise, people claiming that coaches don’t know or that they won’t tell you are just demonstrating that they haven’t been in the situation.

When our kid was in 8th grade, he was choosing between a school with a nationally ranked team and a school with a pretty bad team where he would have been a varsity starter day one.  We didn’t know if he’d make the JV team at the nationally ranked school.

DS did workouts with the team in March, and the coach called me and offered him a spot on the team if he chose that school.  Other teammates were also offered spots to come to the school - one from out of state.

That’s how it works.  Your question is very reasonable, and you should reach out to the coach and see if your kid can get a workout with the team. [/quote]

New poster and really appreciate this post from a parent who gets it (and would love to know the school).
