There are always surprises. Usually 5 or 6 you didn't expect and didn't write to and maybe 1 or 2 you expected but didn't reach out. The better the club director, the fewer surprises on 9/1. Oldest played on YJ and there was only one who we though would reach out, but didn't.

The real "surprises" usually come a week later when you find out who doesn't follow up after initial calls and don't make either offers or try to set up a visit.
