[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like most of our friends and acquaintances whose kids play travel sports are always saying "They Love It" after describing a three day weekend of driving a total of 800 miles, eating crappy fast food in the car three meals a day and playing in 3 different tournament games.  It always sounds very defensive as if they're trying to justify spending a weekend in this fashion.

I know some of these kids might legit love doing this for the love of the game, but how many others are simply being pushed to do all this by their parents?  Travel sports seem to be getting completely out of control, and it's hard to believe that so many families are happy to be spending their weekends this way.  I feel like parents we've known for years become completely obsessed with these travel leagues once they join, and the sport becomes their life.

Anyone else get this "They Love It" statement from a travel sports parent?

So your kid is not athletic and can't make a travel team you say?[/quote]

You got the money you will find a travel team to take your money.  [/quote]
