[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you disagree, please share why you're willing to put up with the expense, the travel, and the crazy parents. [/quote] Disagree in some cases. For the player who wants to play at a competitive HS, the competition and repition they get on a travel team may be necessary to improve enough to be able to play on their competitive HS teams. For example, the best HS lax players played travel lax. The best HS baseball players played on the best travel teams. For basketball, AAU teams. I hate that is it is almost necessary to play at that level to be able to get playing time or even make your HS team, and it interferes with their ability to play multiple sports, but that seems to be the case at some schools. I'm think in particular of large all-boys schools, but it's not limited to that. There are off-season "club" versions of sports that I didn't realize were even out there, including wrestling and cross country. [/quote]
