Our local HS had 150 travel soccer kids try out for the varsity team the year before covid. Probably 50 of them were on the top teams for their clubs so all excellent players. They started with a timed run and if you didn't make the very competitive time you got cut automatically but I can guarantee you all of those 50 made it. There were a couple of stars and position mattered of course, but for the rest it seemed pretty random. It was hard to differentiate between many of those top 50. I'm sure politics/pressure from parents who have influence in the school plays in to it as this is a school in a wealthy area. This is the boys side.[/quote]

What HS is this?  Loudoun has what, 4 clubs and 17 HS, PW has 4 clubs and 13 HS, Fairfax has under 10 clubs and 25 HS. 2 club years for varsity and 2 for JV.  How does one HS have 50 kids from top teams try out?  Most top travel teams have kids from 4, 5, 6 or more HSs. [/quote]

I’m guessing this is a MCPS school.[/quote]
