[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The ones I know it is more about the socialization for kid & parents.  The parents have money so it is nice hotels, nice meals, lots of alcohol for parents. [/quote]

It’s pretty much this.  We can afford it and I’m a middle age parent without much of a social life.  I don’t care if my kid plays in college.  That’s not the point.

Think of this like a giant sleepover without the hassle of the sleepover.  My daughter loves the sport and plays the games and then they all have fun in the indoor pool.  Later they meet up somewhere for dinner.  I’m at a table in a different part of the restaurant socializing with parents, because is this also my social life and like a mini vacation. It’s a nice hotel and a nice restaurant in a different city.  Who cares if we are in a city or in the middle of nowhere.  It’s a break from work and normal life.

Yes. She loves it and I love it.  But we both love travel and nice hotels.  [/quote]

Why not just have an actual sleep over, or why not just travel to a new city and stay at a nice hotel while doing so?  You can do everything you described without being part of the travel sports industrial complex.[/quote]
