 Tryouts are stressful—don’t be the parent that makes them worse. -  It’s tryout season—aka snack-sized chaos. Amanda, Brittany, and Tricia get real about what evaluators actually watch for, parent red flags vs. green flags, and how to help your kid regroup after cuts.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• The truth about tryout evaluation (beyond hands & wheels)
  
  
• Parent behaviours that tank the vibe (and your kid’s shot)
  
  
• Confidence-building feedback that works
  
  
• How to survive bubble spots, cuts, and the reset
