Re: Tryout Shenanigans

anon

I also know enough to judge a kids' ability well enough to know whether a kid should be immediately cut. This kid should have been given the opportunity to complete the tryout process. It was not fair to the kid to deny him that...


^^^^^Says every crazy hockey parent who's kid doesn't make the cut.

darned if you do, darned if you don't.
If the kid gets cut early in the process: "he should've been given the opportunity to complete the process"
If he gets cut after day 3: "why did the program waste our time if they knew he wasn't making the team"

Cant win for losing with some hockey parents.

Let's hear it. Last minute cuts, surprise appearances, lies, deals etc...There is always dirt and always treachery.


My favorite of the year, parent paying his kid a few hundred for having a good tryout....and then not making a team !
