DD attended USSSA Elite Select Futures tryout last night. Was wondering if anyone else attended tryout in Clermont FL and what they thought? Have tryouts in other parts of the country been well organized?
I was not very impressed with the overall organization of the tryout. Way understaffed and not a lot of eyes on the players.
Volunteer coaches were doing their best to help out, but it was clear that USSSA was not prepared for the 200 girls that showed up.
It didn't help that it was one of the coldest nights of the year, and the girls stood around for up to 45 minutes between stations with no direction on where they should be going or doing.
Some parents were returning from last year and said that it wasn't great last year either, but this year was worse.
