How many of them applied and were chosen to go to the training camp? How many of the ones that went trained really hard in order to be prepared to make the team? Finishing first at Easterns doesnt mean they were in the top 15 or however many players at the camp. My team (I wasn't coaching at the time) didn't go to Easterns that year but sent 2 players to the camp and put 1 on the team, they worked their butts off outside of practice to be ready.
Matthew, when can we expect an announcement about application information, tryouts, etc. so that players can submit their information?

Expect more announcements about the application process for the teams this fall and winter.

I saw that I was really wondering if you havd anything more specific, like sometime in October for example. Fall and Winter is only a 5 month window to look for something.
There will be updates about applications, try-out camps, and so forth throughout the next few months. The application window will likely open in early October.
Is there an official announcement of who is invited to the camps or is that kept private and just an announcement of who makes the team?
