[quote=Anonymous]What is unfortunate, to me, is the need for regular long distance travel in sports such as soccer and basketball. I would think that there should be plenty of high level players locally so that travel of more than 50-100 miles for a game would be unnecessary on a regular basis. I have a HS-age kid playing the highest level of ice hockey available here in the DMV, and that does involve league games in PA, NJ, NY, and CT. I'm not 100% certain that its requiired to get the best level of competition, but it may be. Its certainly not necessary for 9 year old basketball players to be flying around the country on a weekly basis to play (I really ran into a team like this at a hotel near Philadelphia last season). There are plenty of high level players here. I think the same is true for soccer, certainly below high school age kids.[/quote]
