This is the DMV. 10 year olds go to Florida and Texas for “elite” tournaments.


That’s fine, if they want to go for competition…they aren’t going for recruiting, though.

Not really for competition. It’s more because travel is fun for families. Planes, hotels, beaches, warm weather, friends. What’s not to like?
