[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For anybody whose DD attended Metro or Paramount tryouts this season (or any of the other more competitive clubs that are a step down from those two), how did the tryout process go there? Just trying to prepare myself for next season when I know my kid is inevitably going to want to tryout for those two clubs. [/quote]

Do as many summer camps and Fall pre-tryout clinics for both. Metro does invite-only clinics before tryouts. If your DD doesn’t get an invite, after going to clinics, don’t expect an offer. Paramount didn’t have invite-only clinics, but they did email me after some clinics to tell us that they were interested in my DD. I don’t know how many girls that didn’t go through this process got offers coming in to tryouts cold. Ofc, any athletically gifted, 6 foot tall girl who shows up at tryouts is going to get any club’s attention.

It’s been a few years since my kid was there so I’ll let others address specifics of this year—-but most don’t try out there unless they’ve been to summer camps/training sessions with those clubs. The ones that do attend are asked to do all the same things as other attendees and they rotate them onto various courts. 
From what I recall, there was lots of movement and lots of mixing it up. Yes you can tell when you’re on a “top” court but they don’t park you on a court and ignore you. [/quote][/quote]
