[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid tried out for both, plus 2 others. Here's my take, too late for this year but may help in the future-- Elevate is much more organized, despite what seemed like more kids at the tryout. Better communication from coaches to parents, and more positive feedback. As a previous poster said, Elevate is forming 3 teams, recognizing they may not get the most accurate view from 1 or 2 tryouts and they want to give promising kids a chance to develop.  Coach also said they know most kids play multiple sports and shouldn't give that up at this age, it makes for better athletes - b[b]ut they build the cushion into their practices to allow for more depth. Big thumbs up from this parent[/b].  [/quote]

Yeah, it sounds great until kids skip all the practices and just show up for games, and then there's no play time for the "bench" players. [/quote]

I don't think this is common in 3rd-4th-5th grade.  The multi-sport kids on our daughter's AAU team last year were all at 75% of the basketball practices.  The bigger conflict is with weekend tournament games (which often conflict with games for the other sport), not practices.  We almost always had 1-3 girls who could not make a tournament.[/quote]
