[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry- that stinks. For most tryouts (for all but the youngest players)- I assume the tryout is basically a formality. Most players are at some point a known quantity (or easy to research ahead of time) and the roster is mostly already penciled in. The tryout itself is really just to decide maaaybe the last few spots. This has always been my assumption anyway. [/quote] This has been my experience with two kids in different sports. The teams are mostly formed before tryouts and tryouts are a formality. Coaches that aren’t parents know the kids through various clinics, camps, former seasons or straight up recruited them. It’s hard to impossible to make a team at tryouts if you haven’t had experience playing in front of the coaches before. [/quote]
