1) No one said no clubs have waitlists. They said no one posts waitlists and then lets everyone in off of them.

2) For a club that you consider good and that "barely markets tryouts", I've gotten more notices about signing up for MOCO tryouts than any other DMV club. And we've never been to any of their clinics although DD did try out for them once awhile back.  So not sure why you're such a fierce defender of them but you're pretty much making up facts now. My inbox says they market their tryouts a ton.[/quote]
Not the PP, but we've tried out for MOCO.

In our experience they do have a waitlist and like almost every club they do work with you to give you alternative options. Last year we registered for a Friday tryout on the waitlist. They reached out telling us Friday was full and that they could accommodate us in a Saturday tryout that was still available, but if we couldn't make it then we would have to wait until someone drops.

Since we tried out for them before we are on their mailing list too. Just checked my inbox and we've received two emails: one saying tryouts are open, one announcing fall clinics are open that included a tryout link. That doesn't seem like an excessive amount of marketing.[/quote]

I went back and looked at my emails too: five emails. One for prep clinics; two saying tryout registration is open; and two (not identical to each other) saying “slots are filling up, register soon”.

For other clubs whose lists were on, we get 2 emails most, but most we only get one email. Also MOCO’s announcement of tryout registrations has been the first notice from any club for the last few years. Nothing wrong with that, and I’d say no one can say MOCO is “excessive”, but the idea that they are so in demand that they “don’t have to advertise” is clearly not what the club itself thinks. And having waitlists and then letting everyone in off of them certainly begs the question “Why have waitlists at all?” It’s n that case?[/quote]
