[quote=Anonymous]In my experience the coaching in travel was worlds beyond rec. Rec coaches were parents who like the sport and want to encourage your kid to be a happy member of the team. Travel coaches work on skills and let you know when your skills are lacking and provide actual tools to get better at playing. They care very little about your happiness but do care a lot about your development. For one of my sons that makes the travel team worthwhile. I have not seen many rec teams where kids are pushed to improve play. They are just given a venue to use their current skills and improvement comes like by osmosis and time, not instruction. If your son would be OK just playing at his current skill level, rec would be a good option. If he wants to play in high school, he should stay in travel.[/quote]
