Not what he said, but no surprise that u didn't understand him. My son's team won all his tournaments in MD and Philly last year. And almost always met a LI team in the finals. You're just a dad who needs to brag that he travelled to MD and Philly as if it means your son is the best in the country. Plenty of talent on LI. One day trips sound so much better than entire weekends. And maybe one weekend at end of the season. Club owners love Dads like you. That's how they make their living.
You're out of your mind. I said my kid plays in Maryland and Philly. 2 away tournaments. The rest are local. However, the away tournaments are a lot more fun for him and our family.
By the way, one day trips are a complete hassle. I'm sure in your unrealistic utopian lax world, all away games would be a 1:00 in the afternoon, right? Well, that's not reality. I'm doing the upstate/PA/CT one day tourneys with my younger daughter. It sucks. Leaving the house at 4:30 in the morning makes for a wasted day for a kid. I'd much rather spend a weekend somewhere different than go to the same damn field every week.
Obviously you're using your grocery money to keep your kid in travel lax and it's getting too much for you. Good things cost money. I bet you're the dad that won't pay for fall or winter trainings either, right? Well guess what, that hurts the team. If you can't swing the whole nut, don't do it. That's all there is to it.
