BryanS Posted July 15, 2011 Report Posted July 15, 2011 To all interested participants concerning GT Shocker tryouts & weather,Had a few phone calls yesterday wondering whether or not we would practice in the rain. Yes, we did end up working out after the lightning left the area and the kids that showed up were real troopers! Since it has been so dry, the fields absorbed the water pretty quickly. If this same scenario happens again on the remaining three open practice / tryouts dates, the answer is YES we will do it again as long as the fields hold up and lightning is not a concern. We will NEVER jeopardize your child's safety if the potential for lightning exists but, our team should always be prepared to work out in light to moderate rain. We believe in preparing our players for those special tournament situations that they sometimes may be expected to play in. I hope this has helped to answer some of your questions / concerns. Looking forward to seeing you at future workouts. Any additional questions, don't ever hesitate to give us a shout.Bryan749-9251
CraigS Posted July 16, 2011 Author Report Posted July 16, 2011 I also have had many calls pertaining to tryouts tomorrow Sat July 16th for the 10U, 12U (first yr) and the 14U. As of tonight we ar still on schedule to have tryouts. As bryan has stated we will do everything in our power to host tryouts SAFELY. If it is pouring rain, lightning in the area, or the fields are dangerous we will cancel....otherwise everything is as scheduled. We will be there at 8:30am.
setx99 Posted July 17, 2011 Report Posted July 17, 2011 Just wanted to say that today's try out, even though the weather was pretty crummy this morning, turned out to be pretty good. Most of the girls come from different teams and all appeared to enjoy themselves. It was nice to see them support and be friendly to one another. Talking in the car on the way home, both my girls said they had fun. GT Shocker practices are known to be tough and challenging, and as one coach said to my daughter the other day, "the practices from he@@". Our girls want to keep coming back. Any parents on the fence about coming to a try out, I encourage you to come take a look.
