My daughter received a blue ECNL offer from open tryouts. So it happens.

As if? That was way harsh. You are a snob and a half.

tbf it’s usually risky at best to just go to open tryouts, especially at younger ages or for mid tier players.

But by U15 or so the better players are known by a number of coaches. Recruiting players is a huge part of what determines a coach’s success. So a lot of players wouldn’t really be walking in cold.

I’m betting the person who said their daughter got a Stars Blue offer from a tryout has a player with a solid soccer résumé from a competitive club. It’s usually easy to find highlight videos on the top 50 players. And maybe they gave the coaches a heads up that they would be at the tryouts.

They didn’t actually just show up for the cattle call, wow the coaches, humiliate the other players, and win a spot, even though that was pretty much the implied humblebrag of the post.

What would have been special about tonight to have info come out? And if you’re interested, wouldn’t you be one of the parents who would have received info?

Jesus...Why do you care? Why would you even make such a comment when it comes to children? Another poster stated they got a Blue National offer. I know several players who have gotten Scorpion National offers including us. I admit it's not ideal or common. Attending practice previously is the better option but why be a turd. Good luck to the OPs kid I hope she makes it

Scorpions National offers this year for tryouts?

because it's a lie. the tryout is intended solely to fill lower team rosters. for more money.

so screw you, coach. and take my God"s name out of your filthy mouth.

My D keeps getting asked to attend national practices with stars. Looking at this thread, sounds like existing players are also waiting for offers. Anyone know when all existing and prospective stars players will be informed about making (or not making) the team?

Which age group? Stars is doing more national tryouts tonight. Regional players were expecting offers by now but national tryouts took presedence. Causing unnecessary stress amongst teams. Some of the stars national players fed up with club catering to out of club players needs causing more tryouts. Stars should Finalize regional and national rosters asap or they will lose players who have been waiting. The coaches know who they want make the offers already. Rumors of national rosters having 20 players which mean two won’t dress per week. If your kid is offered a spot be sure to ask how many rostered and if your kid is in the top 11 or a sub, or a practice player with no games.

Same-external player waiting wondering if Stars communication is always this bad. What a turn off.
