Surviving Tryout Season: Insights from Coaches and Parents of Fremont Rush Soccer
Tips from Fremont Rush Coaches and Parents
Fremont Rush Soccer is a club that focuses on youth soccer, and one of the most challenging aspects of it is the tryout season. Players, parents, and coaches deal with a lot of stress and uncertainty. To get a better understanding of the situation, Fremont Rush Soccer spoke to multiple coaches and parents about how they deal with the stress of tryout season.
The Coach's Take
According to the coach, tryout season is the most stressful time of the year for coaches as well as parents. They have to make tough decisions and have long conversations after training sessions. Although some parents believe that teams are picked before tryouts happen, the coach thinks that players are evaluated throughout the year. If players are moving up through the club, it is a sign of development, and the club should want to promote that. The coach recommends that players attend the top team's coach's training sessions before tryouts to get a good look at them. Parents should keep an open mind and be non-confrontational during tryout conversations with coaches. Being on the top team is not always the best for the player, and coaches ultimately want what's best for them.
The Parent's View
The parent said that this time of year is hard for them because of the fear of not knowing whether their child will move down. Anxiety from parents can cause stress for children. The parent believes that parents should be invested time-wise, but they take more ownership than they should. Parents should separate themselves from their child's emotions and let them play without anxiety.
The coach looks for a competitive spirit, desire, hunger, and intelligence in young players. As they get older, the coach looks for a technically polished player, but the key traits are still hunger and desire. The coach wants players who are competitive because they are the ones who push the team, do extra training, and get the most out of the experience.
The Overview
Tryout season is the most challenging time of the year for players, parents, and coaches. Parents should not take too much ownership of their child's success and try to separate themselves from their child's emotions. For coaches, it is important to keep an open mind and be non-confrontational when having conversations with parents during tryouts. Fremont Rush Soccer values competitiveness, desire, hunger, and intelligence in young players. With these traits, players can develop and become technically polished over time. Good luck to all players and we wish you the best. Go Rush!
