[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how everyone here thinks that it’s a black and white issue- it’s travel ball OR community.

Travel ball is not all year round. Nor is it all life long. Things change and adapt, interests grow and wane. [/quote]

I'm glad your travel team isn't all year round.
My DS (at the ripe old age of 10) was told that if he didn't do both winter sessions and at least one, preferably two summer camps, he would loose his spot on his travel soccer team.
COVID hit right after that, so it was sort of a natural break, and he started a new sport now that is just so much more healthy and fun for him.[/quote]

Wow, did they tell this to all the kids or just some of them?[/quote]

They told it to all of them.  They were the second from top team in the club.  I'm honestly not sure if they were intentionally trying to get rid of some kids and shake things up or if they were just overly intense jack asses.  (My instinct is the latter.)
I haven't followed them closely since DS is in a new sport now, but from the mom grape-vine, it sounds like about half the team is still the same kids.[/quote]
