These were the main points at the Organization Meeting right after tryouts:
- The only way you get into a great school is with great grades.
- Community service is a requirement (they provide opportunities).
- Your school team before fl$.
- Good sportsmanship is a requirement.
- Polite and courteous behavior off the field while representing fl$ is a requirement

If that is an organization you would like to be associated with then tryout. If not, don't tryout.
Excellent post - certainly words of wisdom welcome for the BOTC College Board. Thanks for the contribution.
