Discuss how he/she should handle being asked to join the team and also discuss how he/she would feel if not invited. Each year there are kids who do not make teams. But it&rsquo;s very common to see many of these players play House (Rec League), work on their game by attending the Club&rsquo;s clinics, camps and by playing futsal in the winter. They then try out the following year and make the team. So although the tryouts can be stressful there are also a number of lifelong lessons that can be learned from the experience. Parental expectations and preparation can be a critical part of a child&rsquo;s learning from the experience - whether or not he/she make a competitive team.</span></p><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" class="body_9"><span style="font-family: Tahoma">2) The kids should prepare for the tryout by practicing; either on their own, with a parent or with the one of the Club coaches one of our Club Clinics.</span></p><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-family: Tahoma">3) It is a good idea to watch some soccer on TV, Fox Soccer Channel shows a condensed highlights show of one of the top leagues in the world every Sunday at 6pm each Sunday.&nbsp;</span></p><span style="font-family: Tahoma"><span style="color: rgb(128,0,0)"><strong>Tryout Rules</strong></span>&nbsp; </span><ul style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" class="body_10">    <li>    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 4px" class="body_8"><span style="font-family: Tahoma">Medical releases will be required to be signed by a parent--no release, no tryout, no exceptions!
