[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't recommend signing up for travel unless your child is the one pushing for it. When my daughter was U8-U10, she had no interest in travel and was happy in rec and developmental leagues and trying out other sports. By U11, she got much more competitive and started setting her sights on travel soccer, training more on her own and asking us to sign her up for supplemental skills sessions. She didn't make a travel team until U12. While she is on a lower level team, she is having fun with her teammates and improving her individual and team skills. By U12/U13, quite a few of the kids who had started travel in U8/U9 were dropping out of travel to pursue other sports. [/quote]
