[quote=Anonymous]Community bonding? Do you have older children/tweens/teens? Many kids - if left completely unscheduled- will spend their free time looking at their screens be it bingeing shows, social media or gaming (which one could argue is a community too). Sounds like OP envisions all the travel players hanging in the neighborhood, volunteering, helping neighbors- stuff that sounds great but let’s be realistic. If your kid is completely unscheduled and does these things, then you’ve def done something right! A little scheduling goes a long way in giving kids some structure, interaction with kids they wouldn’t normally hang with, and either physical or brain activity. And gets them off screens! What’s wrong if travel sports becomes that activity? Yeah, weird on a sports message board there’s been a lot of negativity towards travel sports and parents who enjoy watching their kids play sports. What gives?[/quote]
