[quote=Anonymous]My kid is on one of those travel teams with the whole Junior Olympics bit and all. It's ok, but I do think it's ridiculously overpriced. Most of the kids are mediocre and a few are great. One of the great ones has a shoulder overuse injury at 11 and the parents were encouraging the child to play injured even as the coach was not. My kid will probably stick with it another season or tow. She's just not that into it, but does it for the social aspect and we like the physical fitness aspect. I'm over all of the time sucking tournaments. I see OP's point to an extent, but we're not really sports types anyway.[/quote]
