[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My positive story is that we opted to keep our kids in MSI Classic so that they could play with their friends, and we didn't spend all weekend driving all over creation. I think the soccer industrial complex is out of control and not at all healthy for kids or families.[/quote]

I'm always confused when people say things like this. At no point have we spent "all weekend driving all over creation" for travel soccer. Games are usually once a week, within an hour of home, and they last one hour each. We have plenty of weekend left to do other things. People who don't do travel soccer seem to have an inaccurate view of how much time it takes up. This isn't baseball with double headers and whatnot. [/quote]

Depends on the level of travel you play at.  ECNL/GA soccer, for example,  has significantly more travel involved than you referred to.[/quote]

More travel doesn't equate to always travelling 
People seem to forget, half and sometimes more than half the games are Home games[/quote]
