Workouts before tryouts

I know a lot of teams' seasons are over and therefore girls have a little break before hitting the tryout scene again...what do you do to keep them ready if the old team isn't practicing until after tryouts?

We are going to have an "open field" type of practice for anyone that wants to get out there and work in a very informal laid back setting so the kids have a chance to play and work on anything. Anyone that's interested can come...Majority of the girls are 12U.

Tonight, Tuesday July 31 6:00 - whenever at Walter J Long park on Kyles Station in Liberty Township. Feel free to come out...

That's a different approach of getting to see a lot of new faces and possible prospects for your team ;) I kinda like it!

In our area I run try-out drills thru this week for girls who are looking for new teams, gives them that little extra going into things with not much surprise. Although most say they don't see as much as I put in.....lol

I did this last year as well before tryouts and we had a bunch of kids from all organizations come out. It ended up being a great time and it was amazing to see so much talent on the field playing TOGETHER instead of against for once. Tonight was fun and I got a chance to meet some new girls/families that I might not have otherwise. It's a win-win for everyone. :)

Thanks to both Butch and Andrea for putting this together. They are in this for the love of the game and to make the girls better, even if it is not one of their players.

Our practices for the last 3 weeks of the season featured "special guests"; kinda gives everyone an opportunity to "kick the tires" in a relaxed environment. Saw some great players and actually picked up two before my tryouts begin tomorrow night. :)
