[quote=louis1]What happened to the Under Armour tryouts? Dad coaches and teenagers should not evaluate their own players. Period end of story. Maybe Corrigan will take that into consideration in the future.The Massapequa Jesters had 4 girls make the team?? Has anyone even noticed 3 of 4 girls in any of the 3 games they played? They may have played hard but to what end or results?The MJ coaches daughter may have earned her spot (based at least based upon her play against the YJ) and possibly the tryout. It's been said that some of the LI Jesters girls play second line on the Massapequa Jesters. This not to the girls to blame. It's all about coaches and evaluators They did a great job taking up for their own girls.
Just looked at the roster. I am very familiar with these girls. There is clear bias. Many of the chosen girls are weak players. My daughter is in the Highlight division, and that seemed to be run pretty fairly. Either some of the better girls in the age group didn't try out, which left slim pickings, or these evaluators were smoking crack. I really had to shake my head seeing some of those names!
1 Legacy girl made it, 1 TG black girl made it (10 tried out), 2 YJ Gold players, and 12 YJ Blue players. Thorn didn't try and disguise it at all she was taking her players regardless if other girls deserved the nod. Corrigan first lost UA as a sponsor and now I'm sure have lost the other clubs who will let them know its a completely biased tryout and tell their players to save their money don't tryout.
How does only one TG player make the team and 14YJs? You have to wonder how that could even happen in a fair tryout? TG is regarded as a top team on LI, never been beaten by any other LI team in the age group, and your telling me that only one of their players is good enough to make the UA team? Please explain!
