[quote=Anonymous][quote]It varies sport to sport. My son is one of the youngest in his grade, but travel soccer is by birth year, so there are kids a grade below him on his same team. However, even when he played rec (which was by grade at the time, not sure that is the case now), he wasn't worried about "shining." He has fun, and likes to help his team to do well, which I think is the correct focus. When does travel soccer start? How far do you travel for games?[/quote] Pre-travel starts for kids with 2016 birthdays. Regular travel starts at U9 (2014 birthdays). We don't travel that far - furthest has been an hour and a half. More competitive travel teams go further.[/quote]
