With my 8th season coaching 18u almost complete, time to start looking at players for next season. With 9 of current roster moving on to colleges of their choice, and offers made to balance to return, planning of try outs is under way.
I am a non-Parent coach. Based in northern Cincinnati area, I am returning and continuing Ohio Hawks mission of getting players to the next level. Plan is to add missing link players to returnees and form yet another solid squad of athletes, working together to achieve goal of playing at next level.
As of right now, I am starting a list of names to invite for closed (non-public) tryout. Current players have been asked back and those decisions will effect what is needed for balance of team. First tryout is scheduled for Sunday, August 3rd. After final 3 tourneys this summer, All-Sanction World Series (11-13 Jul), Moneyball (17-19 Jul), and local tourney to finish the summer of fun!
I don't do huge 'cattle call' tryouts with 30+ girls trying out. It's not fair to them or myself. Simply impossible to properly evaluate players with a group that large.
Our schedule is going to be competitive and local with focus on playing best possible exposure tourneys, without excessive out of state / overnight travel. I will continue to work closely with all local colleges as to private camps, scrimmages and their recruiting needs.
I encourage any with interest to reach out, either here or cell below, to explore opportunities.
