there was a tryout for 13u kids for a team in milton area where we all paid Fifty Dollars per kid and at least 30 plus kids tried out.

Within a few days the team sent an email saying they did not get the kids to join they wanted so would not have a team. Shouldn't they return tryout fee? Seems a bit odd to keep all the money and claim you will not have a team when there was enough kids for 3 teams show up.

Yes they should return it. This happened to some folks at an "academy" several years ago that has since gone out of business.

Bad will leads to certain demise.

30 parents at the coach's front door I bet there would be a refund .....30 kids and they couldn't pick 11 that is BS and stealing.

I think they should pay back the money. If an organization I think you should call them out. Sounds wrong to me with that many. A good coach should be about helping kids improve.

best way to stop that nonsense is to out the people who hosted the tryout, I know this website doesn't like to name names , but imo stuff like this will continue unless the word gets out. I would like to also say there are people in the travel baseball world that are only in it for money, so my best advice is to check on any coach , academy , or team regardless of their pedigree.

There was a 13u ministry program that did the same thing once. Charging for tryouts is one thing. Not even having a team is another.
