Well, this is a rather simple answer in my mind. Work ethic. All of your team has a good work ethic, then you can have a bunch of kids that want to play. Sure every coach wants the best players, but skills can be tought. And for if you wanna find who has ethic and passion, tell them to do some rediculus drill that isn't fun, but first, tell your kids to stand on one side if they think their fast, and one side of you if they think they're not very fast. Remember those who are on the side that thinks their fast, then tell them to run around the field as fast as they can and they have 1 minute, but they can stop anytime they want. If they say that its impossible, tell them i dont care, or dont respond to them at all. Have them do it once them have them rest for 30 seconds after the very last one is done. If you have a kid that is always the last kid in, and after 3 or 4 of the laps, if hes huffin and puffin and looks like hes gonna drop, have him sit down. Thats the kid you want. The slow kid that has the heart is the kid you want, cause if he tries hard, he can get better (how clechie)
