You should definitely visit the website of the team(s) you are interested in. It seems that almost everyone is offering some sort of prep class this year.
I can’t speak to any individual team’s prep class, but I will say I’ve been to a lot of auditions in the 5 years, I’ve been doing this blog. And it’s pretty easy to see who’s prepared and who’s not.
So consider taking a prep class. Auditions have never been more competitive, so you’ll want to give yourself every possible advantage.
