[quote=Anonymous]My sons LOVE soccer. I grew up in a 3-kid travel soccer household so it's what I know. My sons play soccer every chance they get. After the travel games yesterday they were in pick up games at the park. Travel is year round. Less time in winter (indoor practice) and summer-but still going. We have found the commitment not to be that great. In fact- we told then if they did travel they could do only 1 sport per season. Now they longer do baseball and flag football and we have 2-3 free weeknights! I let them do basketball in winter. My kids were grinning from ear to ear yesterday (first game day). We aren't doing it for college $, etc. My brother and I were both Div-1 players and not so sure it's the best thing for enjoying the 'college experience'. We are also realistic. So to answer the ?: love of sport and playing with other kids that WANT to be there. Rec annoyed my kids when teammates didn't have passion.[/quote]
