district and statewide had to play on expensive travel teams to even think about getting on a Middle School or High School team. She is a natural athlete and made it on the schools' teams from 6th grade on. I used to sit there and think that there must be so much talent out there in the poorer areas where their talents would not be realized if they couldn't afford to be on a travel team. It upset me. I taught in the school system and its easy to see how unfair advantages unlevel the playing field.
