Originally posted by Unregistered View PostFor my situation it is a royal pain. Especially when you have divorced parents and the other has agreed to do the driving based on the expectations put forth. Now it all changes after money is given and they flip out. I know, it's not anyones problem here but it is mine and a BIG issue.

Look to carpool with teammates- you'll have teammates who will help, particularly when they understand the spot you're in. I've always had a soft spot for the kid without a ride, but here's suggestions- pick a pick-up spot that's convenient for the driver, always be punctual (both these require the cooperation of your parent), be super respectful and thankful to the driver, and if your parent won't kick in some gas money, make a card or small handmade gift for the driver to express your appreciation.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI think the point is not about travel, we all know we will travel. But UNNECESSARY travel is the sticking point. There are plenty of teams of similar skill level within 45 minutes. Being forced to travel 1.5-2 hours due to lack of teams in a league is not what we all signed up for.
