[quote=Anonymous]The reason why parents and kids choose travel over rec is because they want a more “serious” experience. An experience with more hours of training, higher quality training, and the same desire to improve and compete among the teammates. That does mean less forgiveness for showing up late and missing warmups. If your club team was run like a rec team with kids that rarely show up but still play the whole game, kids that are late constantly, kids who skip practice but still play, I don’t think you or your kid would enjoy it. One big difference that I have seen between rec and travel is that travel teams have more of a team mentality in terms of responsibility and work ethic, which is another reason why parents sign up for travel. There has to be some accountability and consequences to support that mentality. [/quote]
