[quote=Anonymous]It is easy to get sucked into travel sports and the demands on parents/families.  My son has a great time practicing/competing at games/tournaments and his favorite is the occasional overnight stays for games as well as carpooling with other players.  It has given us an amazing bonding experience with our son to enjoy the sport he loves playing the most.  My son is obsessed with soccer, watches euro games on tv, we go to dc united games and he really enjoyed the world cup.   He plays fifa mobile on his phone and fifa on his ps4.  I also dont have any illusions that he will go pro and/or play in college.  For now we use it as his outlet to let off his excess energy and socialize with his friends.  I figure at some point he will want to dial it back some or start to get interested in something else.  For now we have the financial flexibility for him to play and enjoy it as a family.  I would say one draw back is that having multiple children you have to divide and conquer sometimes and my spouse feels we lose out on some family time on the weekends.  We usually make up for it during the off season.
