Getting back to emotions, (which is what I thought this was about) what are your thoughts there Bomber? Is it that club games are 'just another game' as BT suggests? There was a game this past fall in the upstate on a Wed. night between a team that finished 3rd in the SCSCL and a team whose results didn't count in anyone's standings (though they went undefeated). So it should have been a meaningless game, right? How were your emotions before/during that game? How were gbdawgs? Were they calm because it was a club game? Or were they excitable because there were circumstances about the game that mattered to you?

So, I'll get back to my original question. Is it the player, game, parent etc. that determines the answer to gbdawgs' original question or is it simply a matter of hs is exciting and club isn't?



Good point AH, I stand corrected, great 4-2 game between a pick up 1st year team from Piedmont who practiced 1-2 days a week.(sometimes not at all)and the South Carolina State Champs. I was on pins and needles all day, I can't speak for my daughter though, I bet she was nervous but there were no tears of joy or tears of defeat from either side. Just a good soccer game
