I'm not concerned about my younger son not doing travel ball, he doesn't want to play "regular" team sports either, so he doesn't. It's more that some of the sacrifices involved would be made by him for something that doesn't really benefit him. IE our whole family gives up the trip to Europe for my older one to play travel ball, so he loses out on that opportunity without much upside.
I totally agree with you on what you’re saying here. Every family is different, we have spent lots of time on the road in hotels and such with kids sports, we try and turn some of those weekends into mini holidays / family time when possible.
But, let’s be clear, that is not a comparison to Europe!!
