[quote=Anonymous]Yes, they are expected to attend all practices although very occasional absents are understood. My son missed one practice due to illness, and I would say that most of his team has only missed 1 or 2 practices, if any. There is a huge focus on learning to play as a team at the MS level so missing practice is not only detrimental to your son's development but also the team's. Most travel clubs I know have practice 3X a week, with the possibility of an additional voluntary session for specialized training. Plus games. In other words, it is a lot. This is our first year and it definitely has required adjustment and we really do have to stay on top of homework, be proactive, and get as much of the bigger stuff (studying for tests, working on projects) and weekly stuff (X minutes of online math, etc.) done during the weekend. If you feel you cannot do this and may have to miss practice for homework, then I agree travel is probably not for you. [/quote]
