My kid is really excited to travel to other states, face excellent competition, and new teams.
Envious haters: By all means, please stay in your own league, play the same teams over and over again. Play the same team that's a comfortable 30 - 45 min drive away year-after-year in the fall and spring.

It won't be nearly as glamorous to you.

So you drive 2-2.5 hrs away? thats not crazy but since its only 2.5 hrs away and not 3 hrs away, you're all up in arms and everyone else but you are crazy. The only people that should be saying this are parents from CCSL, CJSA, Travel or Rec. Everyone else should shut the F up.

There is no need for all this travel and not that long ago virtually none of it was going on. Too many leagues make it possible for everyone to avoid playing each other.

New parents want the perceived “elite” teams and clubs are happy to sell you the product. Anyone who has been through this knows that 50% of the players on these u12 teams will not be on the rosters at u16. Club will churn the rosters and bring in better players from the outside
An unathletic Dad and short fat Mom aren’t going to have a D1 player regardless of how many trips they make on the LIE or Mass Pike.
It’s a waste at this age

Who the living hell are you to rain on our parade of happiness for your momentary moment of dark satisfaction. And I care as much about your kid going to a D1 school as I do listening to you validate your wisdom with it.
As a parent, I'm excited to be a spectator in this potentially awesome league
As a child, my daughter is super pumped for the season ahead
As a club, they are very proud to have put this together (no additional costs)
As a a child of God - if you don't have something nice to say, or constructive, please don't say anything at all. That said, we all know you lack that as you rationalize your point of view, spew your own agenda, and spread your negativity to all that would entertain it, even for a second.
Signed
Rick and Dave

New League
What the heck is everyone going on about? This league looks like it has amazing potential. Of course nobody knows how it will all pan out, but it looks amazing and isn't over bearing in terms of the amount of games, so teams that are participating can set up all sorts of complimentary development activities.
Right on.... looks really promising!
Well done to the clubs that ARE TRYING.
