DA does not want tryouts.
"The Academy firmly believes that the traditional open tryout is a highly flawed and ineffective model for player identification and evaluation. The expectation is that Academy clubs move to using a more systematic scouting model to identify and recruit new talents and invite these players to trial for an extended period with the current player pool. Clubs may not charge a registration fee for tryouts, which includes fees for equipment, apparel or etc."

From another thread: "Orlando City Directors would use local tournaments at Seminole Complex as a recruiting tool. OC directors were arrogant about having MLS and would come straight up to a player and invite him to a practice. Not good business to invite clubs to your event and then recruit their players from under. Poor Poor management."
