[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CCL blows.  traveling 2-3 hrs for a non-competitive match sucks.  Who the f wants to go to Roanoke.  Pretty sure they aren't known for quality soccer.[/quote]

You are a provincial moron and your kid is getting the game he deserves even if he did not get the parents he deserved. Don’t go if you don’t like it.  Your priors will limit your ability to enjoy new environments. Don’t limit your kids in the same way. [/quote]

Yes, you should sacrifice your child’s experiences and enjoyment so that other people should benefit. How selfish of you. Time to start putting the Roanoke kids needs ahead of your kid. That’s why you do youth sports.[/quote]

So true.

[b]I do NOT understand these dipsh*ts that just love to drive hours for games.  I grew up in travel and my parents (and my dad was a travel soccer coach for 20 years) about having to drive to Mt St Mary's to blow someone out 11-0.  The hours in a car for a kiddie match are useless.  Completely useless.  I say that as a family that had 3 D1 soccer full scholarships and one pro player.  [/b]

Idiots wear the length they travel for a 60-90 min soccer match with pre-pubescent kids like a badge of honor.  All the while driving right on by Clubs that would offer better competition in a 30 min drive.[/quote]

You do not need to sign on to a team that plays in a league that travels farther than you wish to drive. There are lots of teams with lots of league options. If you freely sign onto CCL knowingly and you you know you have to drive to VA Beach that is on you and you alone. [/quote]

NP with advice to parents in the thick of it from one who has been through this. The PP is correct. It's not worth giving up your family time and sitting of hours at a time in the car unless you really, really want your kid to play soccer in many different locations. There is plenty of competition locally that will take up far less of your time. The reality is that 1-2 hour each way drives for non-competitive matches and the meals out that these trips involve are more likely to undermine a healthy active life style than to create one.

Nobody is making you do any of it.[/quote]
