I guess the clubs must both offer what your kid is looking for?

Signing the contract and paying a deposit is part of the acceptance process in whatever system they use when you hit accept.

If it’s a high level team they will likely hold you to the 48 but follow up before they pull the offer. If it’s not, it will stay open. Ask for more time and if they say no you’ll have to make a decision before the other tryouts.

yeah those 48 hour expirations are never real, are they?


It does if your kid isn't special and and a needed add on to the tram. Don't listen to people saying it's all BS. For 90% of players they will move on if you don't respond and if you ask they will tell you no to an extension.


False

Really? Good to know! Do most people respond after the 48 hours? Last year, I asked for an extension on the 48-hour deadline and was only given 48 more hours. So I ended up accepting the offer before another one came in.

I think you're probably fine to ask for an extension.

yes but they don't have to agree to it, obviously. i asked for an extension from one club while waiting on an offer from another and they gave it to me.
