[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not yet, but I see it coming in the near future as my eldest approaches high school age.  I'll miss it, but I'm excited for all the adventures he has ahead!
And I won't miss the traffic on I-95 going to all the tournaments on the East Coast.  LOL

I don’t understand why so much travel is needed for travel sports nowadays. This area has a dense population. I grew up in New England and we only had to travel an hour at the most[/quote]

You still don't have to. Recruiters are reviewing video remotely. They may show up for a specific kid they are trying to recruit. However, some will make you believe that kids need to travel for for competition and exposure. Unless you are at the tippy top, your kid will not need that ... even if headed to college. I have watched this play out. In fact last year, I saw one kid not play for the past year and a half due to an injury and he still got an offer to play at a college. Mind blown. [/quote]
