[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait, why do you have to stand there and watch them? Surely they can carpool and have the parents rotate this miserable chore??[/quote]

Well, I don't stand there and watch them, that is a little creepy.

With travel soccer you are lucky to find somebody that lives near you.

I read a book, go for a run, run to the store, mail a package, check email, etc. I have met some very interesting parents (who generally talk during practice but don't during games). Soccer is pretty international, we have made friends with people who have lived all over the world... Peru, England, El Salvadore, West Africa, Holland, France, Egypt, etc.

I don't really make this type of connection with parents of school mates as much.

The ride to and from is a great time to connect. Sometimes we will carpool, certainly there are families with schedules that conflict so we help each other out. It is also fun to hear what teens have to say in the back of the car, like I am not even there.
