Buy a spot on an elite team? If kids are flying in from other states most likely they are not paying the club fees or gear or bribing their way onto a team. Maybe a tournament fee but that is it. Some players do actually come for tryouts and make team as a summer player only and their names are on team roster from day 1.Some players have simply moved in the middle of the year, or some other personal tie with the team or coach. Other players are seen the previous year at tournament by a coach or in most cases they are at a CAMP or EVENT run by the particular club. MM runs camps allover the country - RM has events and camps also. Business takes over and the youth sport takes a back seat
