[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Herndon pulled their teams and put them in NCSL instead because their coaches and parents didn't want to travel all the wqy to Timbuktu for one U-little league game.

I think that was smart TBH. The competition in NCSL D1 or playing up a year in NCSL is the same, only you are driving 15 minutes instead of 3 hours one way.[/quote]

defeat purpose of playing "TRAVEL".  why not just stick your kids in rec.  team and club cannot improve by limiting kids to play in lower competition.[/quote]

If you want to waste your life driving 10 year olds all the way to Virginia Beach for a mediocre u-little soccer game that could have been played down the street, knock yourself out. You do you, boo.[/quote]Is it ideal, no. But do you do it every weekend, no. Use it as an opportunity to spend a day at Busch gardens or great wolf lodge. [b]It gets tiring playing the same teams and kids from nova,[/b] so I dont mind an occasional trip to play kids from other areas and other styles. If you do mind, then yeah, you do you boo.[/quote]\

There are literally hundreds of u-little soccer teams in the DC area you could be playing.

Most people are busy with multiple children and, well, lives. If we want to vacation at Great Wolf Lodge, we will do that on our own schedule. Why spend a whole weekend
playing one short U-little soccer game when you could knock out literally the same level game (mediocre travel) in a two hour time frame on a Saturday down the road? [/quote]

Another benefit to being more local is more opportunities to guest play for other teams in the club. That’s certainly better for development than sitting in a car. It also leaves time for other sports which I think is important when they’re still in elementary school. [/quote]
