Summerville is also planning on getting a some fields together and putting together a rec department. Should be interesting to see how that all pans out. You have a Y program that had almost 1200 kids in the spring and SSC there so I am waiting to see how that could change things. Hopefully this does not spread things to thin.
Dawgs I traveled all over the country to play baseball and I have a friend who played AAU ball and he traveled everywhere as well. It was all done through sponsorship and fund raising. I coached soccer(spring and fall) basketball (two teams) baseball and flag football this year. Most of the kids on my teams play soccer for me. I believe the skills that they learned on the soccer field have carried over to the other sports. We were very successful at everything. At the end of the day, a different parent rotates to help me with each sport. I grew up playing everything but when I started all this I realized I need to hit the books with the soccer. I have spent endless hours researching, coming up with practice plans and putting strategy to the types of players I have. I know that I am not the only parent willing to put this amount of energy towards this. I would not trade any of the time I have spent with my son and his friends over the last 3 years. We will be venturing into our first season in LSYSA this fall and I am sure there will be a learning curve but we will put in the work, get better each week and let it rip every time we take the field.
