If a series intices all the best kids you still would wrestle the same best kids every weekend. I think it is good to travel around your state as well as other states close to your neck of the woods. We make trips to Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Oklahoma and Kansas. Makes your kids more diverse to different styles and lets them know that the world is bigger than "your own back yard" check out the neighborhood. Travel to any of these places is the same for me as it would be to go to a tournament in district 1 (Pittsburg), District 2, District 3 or District 4. About 2-3 hours any direction or more and hotel stays.
