I’m in middle school, I’m trying out for varsity team. Anyone know how to stand out or get the coaches attention? Or how to make the team?⚽️?

Lift weights, show that you work harder than the older players/want it more. If there are tryouts get their early and or stay late. Coaches love juggling ability because it shows who is getting the most touches away from team practices. . Lastly, if you can afford outside lessons, improve upon your weaknesses instead of being exceptional at your strength. Coaches notice deficiencies.

Be confident but don't act like a jerk. Be vocal and encouraging to other players. This means telling the 'good job' and calling for the ball or directing teammates on defense at the appropriate times. Above all else, at this age, be good.

Be more talented and show more heart/dedication/work ethic than the other players

Speed and ball control are keys.

Dye your hair blonde before the trial.
