[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There may be some second tier M&D or Hero’s girls trying out. Girls in the 13-20 range that can’t get playing time. Those girls are just as good if not better than what the DMV produces. Capital’s equal playing time is very attractive to someone that may only play a quarter or less currently.[/quote]

Well, does anyone know if any showed up?[/quote]

Be happy those players aren’t showing up as they’d all take spots away from your DD.  The average Pride and Stars parents are celebrating this morning.[/quote]

Other way around bro … be happy the best of Pride isn’t competing for Md teams or you’d be sweating thru your HUK shirts.  [/quote]

Maybe you should look a little closer at the Maryland practice fields over the past month[/quote]

The 1/3 DBG may be on to something about stats but it’s for the top DMV players landing on MD teams.  Worst kept secret.[/quote]

I can’t make sense of this. Are top DMV players showing up at MD practices or not?[/quote]

Yes[/quote]

Even a DMV insider might struggle to put together a list of "top" players from the various DMV teams, so I am a bit skeptical of reports of top DMV players at MD practices.  I suppose their could be some hedging of bets going on by certain players who are unsure of their standing with Capital.  Over/under on a "top" player from a DMV team picking an MD team over Capital is 0.5.[/quote]

While I think some of us probably believe we could actually put together a good list--I would agree that there is some hedging of bets and a few hoping to fill a niche.  I would say that is the right over under for players who make Blue.

I think there and lots of very good players on the area teams, but picking the “top” ones would be difficult for me and I have watched many of these girls play for years. Capital will have to make the same assessment after a 4 hour tryout. This is why most people are so uncertain of what comes next. There are more than enough very good players to fill the top team, so some are not going to make it. Hedging bets is a good idea for pretty much everyone. [/quote]

Between the multiple tryout clinics, private lessons and healthy ballers clc has a pretty good idea who the strong players are going into tryouts. The reality is they have a good idea on 70-80% of who they want on clc b. [/quote]

Folks, the cycle rinses and repeats annually. Do you really believe Capital is going to pick a team based on a 3-4 hour tryout?

Capital knows most of the players who will make the Blue team long before the tryout. Maybe 4-5 spots are open for players who standout at the tryout. If you are not aware of the system and working it the odds are long.

Parents, be realistic with yourselves and your daughters about their skill level. Set proper expectations early. Sending them to a tryout with 140 players vying for 4-5 spots is tough.[/quote]

Only thing missing at the end is “mmmkay?l[/quote]
