[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, there are a lot of strong opinions out there. I asked the initial question and have the DD. I'll let her try out and leave it up to her to decide when the time comes. If she makes a team, wants to do it and it doesn't like it she can go back the following year. I don't the driving and honestly, it doesn't sound too bad compared to what we have been through with my older child's tournaments. DH and I often split up for these things and or find carpools. We can make that work. You have answered my other questions. Thanks, everyone![/quote] Never mind some of the posters. I posted about simply finding the level that meets your kids playing level as well as providing the balance you might need. All of this is choice. You can choose a high intensive club team or a more laid back. The point is, there are choices. The board has a couple of people who seem to ignore or overlook the "Travel" part of Travel Soccer and then blame the mega soccer industrial complex for crushing all the joy in their lives, as if they have no choice in the matter. But step one is to tryout. Look for more local clubs especially at younger ages. Everyone also forgets that while rec teams have classmates so to do travel clubs. In fact there is a good chance your kid will meet either other schoolmates or kids from nearby neighboring schools who may very well be classmates by middle school. [/quote]
