- My driveway.
Part Two:
- My expectations were high for some reason. I guess the thought of having real referees and coaches who had experience sounded like the right direction to take my oldest son, but I have my doubts at this point. Having a lengthy and successful background in competitive traveling sports my understanding of how things should be is fairly defined at this point in my life. I wanted my son to have a taste of what fun it can be to play on a travel team, however as I alluded to earlier the satisfaction level up this point is definitely lacking. I can’t help but keep asking myself, why are they doing things this way? This makes no sense to me. Am I the only one who feels this way? Or, are there others? And, if so, what can we do to change things? Is it even right to try and change things? Or, will I/we just make life worse for our children? Before you know if the season will be over and very little progress will have been made.
