[quote=Anonymous]Two kids in elementary school. Among our other obligations, they each love and play team sports. They are both fairly good, but at the club/house/little league level. I know several families that support their kids on travel teams, and I know some of the reasoning behind it (better chances of playing in H.S. and beyond, part of a group, play is more competitive). But I'm throwing it out there to hear from more people. I played sports and had lots of activities throughout my childhood, but the travel teams were not as popular as they seem to be today. I'm getting pressure (not from coaches, btw) to have them try out for and participate on travel teams. For those that have their kids on travel teams, or who participated on a travel team, why is this important vs. playing on the house league? And at what age is it recommended to move to a travel team? Thanks! [/quote]
