[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know about others but for us it is quite simple. Our kid loves her sport and we love our kid.
She has too much skill to play rec level as it is frustrating for her. The travel level provides her with the challenge she craves. 
She sets the pace and as her parents we want to support her. Nothing more, nothing less.[/quote]

The dc metro area has a ton of the same level players as your kid—why does she need to travel to Delaware and North Carolina when there are players around here at her level? I get not wanting to do rec, but why do the “travel” teams have to travel so far they need hotels? You are ALL leaving the area when you can play each other here. [/quote]

+1 to the pp.  what you write is true re soccer so that kid plays most local.  Not true for hockey, so we have to travel.  We don't control the system.  We just sign up for the options available to us.  I am definitely a hesitant participant and if my hockey kid quit tomorrow, I'd be thrilled, but he loves it, so there is that.[/quote]
