What are we looking for?
Nexus are looking to put a new team together from the country’s talent base. We feel that there are a lot of players out there that could do so much more but for one reason or another are not achieving what they want to.
We are looking at putting a 9-player roster together. There have already been 3 players selected for the team, which leaves 6 places available.
We are not just looking for 6 midget, lightning fast bunker monkeys, we are looking for Back, Mid/Insert and Point players.
If you are chosen, you would have to leave your current team and commit full time to the new Nexus team. The new team will train side by side with the current Nexus squad.
More details will be explained if you make the final cut.
Sponsorship.
If you think for one second getting on this squad is going to give you a free ride then forget it. Any sponsorship that the new squad gets will be on it’s own merits. Having said that we have several companies interested in the new squad but this should not have any bearing on your decision to try out. You should try out if you want to be one the best !
Format.
After a brief chat about how the day will run players will be split up into teams and taken out to the field where several games will be played throughout the day. During these games Robbo and the guys on Nexus will be looking for that special something in a player, you might not be the best player there but if we can see the potential in you then you will be chosen for the next stage. It is up to each and everyone there to be the best they can, we will be there to offer advice and help but you need to show us what you got.
We don’t care if you come along with a Basic Blow Back Spyder or a fully tricked out Eclipse Cocker it is your ability that we are looking at.
Saturday Evening… At about 5:00pm we will finish the Saturday trails and will narrow the field down to about 15 to 20 players for the Sunday. At this point, the trials will end for everyone else that has not been picked. If you want to ask for any pointers as to why you have not made it or what you can do to improve then the Nexus players will be there for a Q&A session.
Sunday… If you are one of the lucky ones then the Sundays trial is the last big hurdle that you will need to jump. As well as playing each other and the Nexus team you will also be put through a few drills to see how you cope. At the end of the day the final choice will be made and those players will be offered a full time place on the squad.
As Robbo says ' I ain't looking for pro players here, I am looking for potential'.
If you think you got potential, then get your ass to the trials.
Hotel Info:…….If anyone wants to stay over in a hotel these are the two we normally use. There are more but these two are good if you can get in.
Lion Hotel in Worksop… Great hotel, 5 minutes from the site and in the heart of Worksop. Tel: 01909 477925
Travel lodge Worksop… Cheaper and nice with a pub just over the road 10-minutes from the site. Tel: 0870 191 1684 or use this link.
