[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS almost always misses one of three weekly practices to go to Hebrew School.  It's been OK so far, but he is only U12.  I wouldn't have him skip just for homework/studying.[/quote]

Why sign up for a sport knowing in advance that your son would miss ONE THIRD of all practices? That's a huge amount and is unfair to your son's teammates.[/quote]

We did not know in advance that practices would conflict. Last year they didn't. We didn't know fall practice days/times til late August.  We still don't know practice days and times for winter.  [/quote]

Seriously if we could predict practice schedule it would make it much easier [/quote]

How far in advance did you get your homework schedule?.......Exactly.

Seriously, practice will be 3x/week consuming a block of time sometime between 5:00-9:00pm. If ANY of that conflicts with your other obligations then do not play travel soccer regardless of level. Rec or Challenge soccer can provide the same fun and exercise with a more manageable time commitment.  [/quote]
