I got something in mail,kinda setup like a college letter but it says "Your invited to participate in the Under Armour National Tryout" Im a senior and looking at the date,i cant attend because of a select tournament that weekend but i was just wondering is the invite a good thing? and did someone have to see me to get this sent? just some simple questions

thanks

I probably wouldn't get to excited over this. It's probably a form letter they send out to people on a mailing list and they can get your address numerous ways - probably a showcase you went to or a college camp.

I hope I am wrong about this and it is something bigger and greater for you but if you decide to pursue it further try to find out more information.

One thing you run into (which I don't know if Under Armour would do this since they are such a big name) is things like this become money makers for coaches.

I had a kid one year get something in the mail about he was chosen to try out for a team that would go to Australia to play. I told him it probably wasn't that legit and it was a money maker. He went to the tryout and made it but the trip cost him around $8000 just to go. To this day he still thinks it was because of his skill although he wasn't that good. He was a 2B and there were 6 2B on the team. I guess only 2B could afford the trip.

Good luck with your select tournaments and don't give up on these random letters but be careful not to be swindled out of money.
