I'm glad to hear your son had a good experience but ours definitely wasn't "nice." The Alexandria parents were really something else, screaming so loudly at 7 year olds that they couldn't hear the coaches and had to stop the games, and (in a different game) refusing to leave when the ref directly told a parent he had to go. The Alexandria coach did nothing to calm his own parents even when the ref asked, and there was no Alexandria staff on site to intervene either (the poor ref was trying to find someone).
And yes, I've been to Richmond and Atlantic City but this was disgraceful behavior for a stupid local kids tournament. Absolutely ridiculous in an environment for 7 and 9 year old children. (And my kids had tons of wins and some championships this weekend, so that's not my issue.)
