My cadet is weighing options of trying out for the varsity sports team. It would include a pretty hectic travel/game schedule. Because there was no recruiting from a coach, odds are any play time would be very minimal. Other than bonding with teammates, is there much of a benefit in playing...

Golf Company Uh oh- my swab is in Golf. Is it the laundry or the maintenance that makes it bad luck?
