There were 36 kids. Less on day 1. Theoretically all who showed should have made div 1 or 2.

There were obviously stronger players and some div 4 players. So the kids Im talking about were in the middle of the pack.

There wasnt any small sided games. Just straight to 11v11 on day 1 and 2.

Now from what I saw the coaches did a lot of chatting on the sideline. Barely watching the field.

Kids were doing what they wanted. No formation at all. No passing, just individual runs up the field.

It was chaos and I hate to say it but one of the worst evals I have seen.

For teams U13 and up 1st tryout should be 8 a-side and the 2nd & 3rd should be full field . These so called evaluation generally have no clue about the players they are evaluating . I have seen these so called evaluation experts chatting/joking around instead of watching the players. Players deserve better when their whole season is being decided .
