You know what I am talking about, the club tryout and they are RIGHT around the corner. Do your research and be prepared. 

The biggest disaster probably in youth soccer. Players get lined up, put pennies on, do a quick warmup and then scrimmage the remaining duration for an hour and 20 minutes; while all the coaches stand there with a clipboard and discuss internally and share a few laughs. 

Vince Lombardi said, "Winning isn't everything, but making the effort to win is." The same principle applies when hosting tryouts. Show and make an effort by doing the right thing. I also provide you with my CLUB CHECKLIST for when evaluating clubs (this is designed for players who want to play PRO).

I also discuss the better format when running club tryouts and why.
