[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be amazing if they could find a central location for Pride, I feel like you'd end up with truly competitive AAA teams rather than teams that are probably equivalent to high-end Tier 2 teams. I feel like they miss out of so many talented players in our are who can't realistically get to Rockville. It ends up being more of a Team Maryland team.[/quote]

It's amazing to me how willing some families are to deal with traffic for hockey.  There are many kids that mine have played with over the years, co-ed and girls, who are driving to Philly for hockey.  We're not that hardcore, but are still coming from VA.  On the 19 team (which ended up the year ranked 21 for national bound teams which is not bad) the team was split about half and half MD/VA, and the VA folks were driving from as far as Bentonville/Skyline and Dumfries.  Definitely not for the faint of hear.  The further drivers tend to be from VA as I think there are more options for kids who live in Baltimore, they could go south or north to Philly/NJ. Believe the club has explored splitting practices between MD and VA in the past, but could not get the ice time to make it work.  Most VA rinks are pretty fully subscribed at this point.[/quote]
