Tryouts
David Beckham's drawing power was on display in Los Angeles at the weekend - and the former England captain was not even there. Some 800 young hopefuls turned up on Saturday as Beckham's new team, the LA Galaxy, held trials to find new players.
They had the chance to prove their worth in a series of seven-a-side games watched closely by Galaxy coaches. The players came from all over the world, with more than 20 countries represented. Some were there to make the squad. Some were there only to say they once tried out for Beckham's new team.
