Who all is trying out for ECNL???
How many from each 04 team are going to try their hand at the 03 ECNL team? The fall back plan is SRPL?

Ok another question... Anyone have any idea how many they might take from each of the current teams?

It doesn't matter, if your not already on the griffin team good luck with trying.

All I'm saying is I think there are girls in the club that could make griffin a even stronger team but not given a chance

And that's where the politics come in to play... I would actually agree 100% on that front! I still think there is a rude awakening coming and everyone will be put into their place very shortly. Some will probably be humbled by this experience...

I don't know that any of the girls need "humbling" on Griffin's team...maybe a few of the parents, but not really any need for anyone to be "put in their place" on the parent side, IMHO, either. I sense a lot of bad feelings out there...Not really called for by my sense of the situation. I can understand the feelings, but don't think the facts call for 'em...

I can think of one or two, for sure, but last spring, there were only so many roster spots. The new player spots went to girls who had already come over or who had a history of guest playing with us leading up to try-outs and who were know quantities...seems fair to me and seems to have worked out well. Some of the politics, therefore, were parent driven in that there were Winters girls last year who would not play when asked or who had parents who were caught up in the rivalry and wanted no part of Kitterman's team and parent group..not saying justified or unjustified, just that it was so. So we never got a look at their girls, even though we needed players for pretty much every tournament, as we were down to 11-12 players for parts of the year, especially when injuries were taken into account. So who denied them a chance? Not us, I can assure you of that! Again, whole new year and tryout, so it'll be interesting to say the least. Seems like it already is!

Oh well I was basing that off of the walk on water attitude I have seen for the griffin team here on the forum which is strictly parents... I didn't mean put in their place in the sense that you think I mean. I meant actual placement. I just think some of the other teams don't get credit where credit is due when it comes to comparison by the Griffin parents...

Sounds like a walk back to me, but I'll take it! Just for the record, I, for one, don't think any team has State Cup in the bag...12 year old girls have their own mysterious ways, so "rude awakenings" can occur at any time with these girls, not just tryouts!
Pop quiz!: What is the only 04 team in the state that has beaten us?...(Twice in one weekend, no less!) The answer will prove my point..any team at any time can win (or lose)...

I just call it like I see it... Maybe we can revisit this post in a few weeks and see how it worked out?

A better question to ask is how many parents are going to start or have started kissing *ss to secure a spot on that ECNL team?

You are on top! Nobody said it would be easy... Just remember that's the reason you guys get so much crap on here. It's all fun until you move to the 2nd team! Lol. Just kidding. I just like to stir the pot! Ruffle feathers... You know. Soon it will all be clear!

this is not meant for any particular team it goes for all sports, club and highschool. parents and politics need to stay out of the mix and let athletes earn their place by skill and ability
