ESA offers different levels of tryout system from simply running the tryout to making the final decision on the teams. Most clubs like to take away all parent involvement and keep the tryouts unbiased to avoid political issues later on in the season and so choose our Gold package. Parent’s evaluations are completed prior to each tryout and made available to the trainer as a guideline.
