DD is starting to have vb tournaments from 8-4 (this weekend she'll play 4 games and ref 2), and I'll be the one bringing her. Luckily DH is home and can keep the other two kids home (they'd be super bored, plus it's far away and we have to pay admission for everyone).
DS will eventually have soccer tournaments, too, and I'm wondering how to manage that to use our time most efficiently.
I figure I'll stay there the whole time, but was wondering if there's ever an age where you would leave (to run errands, etc.) during parts of it, or even have your kid ride with you one way, and with a teammate another way. Is that bad?
Also, I love watching her and her team, and talking with the other parents, but starting next year I'll have a lot of grading to do and I'm wondering how to get some of it done during parts of the tournaments without coming off as anti-social.
How do you do it in your own family, and how much/ how often do the younger siblings go and watch the older ones play, especially when events are far away and admission costs add up?
Thanks!
