- What to expect: Tryouts at Magic City are essentially low-stress workouts. During the tryouts, athletes show skills they have developed and demonstrate a potential to learn new skills. Athletes are given numerous opportunities to show skills over 3 days. This also gives athletes and our coaching staff time to get acquainted with one another.
