Answer 2

They usually last a few days and the coaches usually look for conditioning and how well they perform with the basic fundamentals. They may divide up in to teams and scrimage. Most high school coaches will not turn anyone away who is willing to show up and try anyway. The only schools where they do that are big big high schools.

Answer 3

usually a little running, and some drills that test your basic knowledge of the game. If you really want to make the team do what ever the coach asks as hard as you can. Most running are tests to see who wants it most.
