Yes, that's what I heard as well. It sounds like NNSWF might rely more on their own scouting and club recommendations for next years TSP, and only use trials if they don't think they have enough kids. This makes sense - much better to observe kids over the season and get feedback from coaches who see them week in, week out, than rely on trials.
