The endless whining wears thin...If your kid was a standout and showed it on the field they would be there. I do not know one coach who would select a team to lose...you're probably the same parent who complains about playing time...yes you're right...coaches play less talented kids so they can lose so your fantastic, highly skilled kid can sit on the bench...

Stop with the personal persecution complaining...it's a game! And, a game with no future ahead of it. Unless you want to play for the Lizards and make $15,000 a summer. LOL... Take advantage of the opportunities you earn and move on!

So kinda like how they picked last years team and went to the tournament and got smoked? Pretty good bet theyll go down and get smoked again. Having said that, the argument is not about whether or not the kids who were picked are good players, its about the process. Clearly in this case the kids were picked before the tryout began and kids were allowed to not show up to both nights. If that was the case, why not pick the team beforehand and forego the tryout and save everyone the time and money? Additionally this same group of kids has been picked time and time again for almost every high profile event there is dating back several years, its a little ridiculous now. Oh and not to mention the fact that 18 out of the 22 kids chosen play for or have played for the club that one of the head evaluators owns. If you cant understand why people are upset, you clearly have no clue.
