Not knowing anyone there or doing any networking I didn't expect much but Express certainly exceeded my low expectations. He didn't make the teams which is fine with me but what does irk me is that after paying the $100 tryout fee we didn't even get an email saying thanks for coming down. Pretty low class. I have no problem that he didn't make it there were tons of kids. But a thank you email is the least they could do after gladly taking my $100.


Your not the only one with this gripe, they didn't send many emails to kids telling them they didn't make the team. Not very cool! Well you got a pinne.


Your kid may still have a shot. Express wanted commitments by last week but many got extensions to see what would happen with Empire, fl$, 91 and any others that had tryouts this past weekend. So some of those kids will pass on Express and new spots will open up. There is still a chance....but I agree with the suggestion to call them if you want a more direct answer.
