[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, I get some of it.  My DS played soccer all the way through, both club and HS.  He played club as the lowest level though and I only had one time that we stayed overnight out of town and that was because he had an early game the next day and we didn't feel like driving.  He's in college now and not sure if he even has kicked a soccer ball since he graduated HS.  He played for the social aspect of it - hanging out with friends, team dinners in HS, etc.

Younger DD is all in on soccer though.  Trains on her own outside of practice, wants to play in college and beyond even.  She's playing in ECNL and there have been many overnight at hotels for games and now she is older going to showcases.  She's played with the same core group of players for years now, so we have developed relationships with some of the parents and consider them friends outside of soccer now as well.

Heading to San Diego for playoffs at the end of June, which will be our vacation this year as well.  Nothing wrong with that, I think.

We have talked to her since she chose this path that she needs to play for herself, not for us and that has worked well.[/quote]
