league play.

There are so many different reasons per individual.

1)cost and travel is the biggest one. it cost alot of money to play in another city than your own. Some coaches like different styles which may not be offered close to where they live. So either they sit it out and just collect figures, or play solitaire. You may lover a league but is it worth it to travel and spend maybe $500 to play on a weekend. A coach may just stay home and buy a watts board with that money. or a team detailed by a master.
i think every coaches dream is to play in there own backyard with a rule set they love, with coaches who have the same passion. It's like when you went out to play basketball or baseball with the same group of guys all the time when you were younger.
I thought there was going to be an east division for the mid ohio league this year but i have not heard from anyone. I did not plan on going to beaver falls and now columbus. i going because i love the rules and coaches. Also, i wanted to play at least 8 to 9 games and uphold alot of my sked.
