I was thinking about this the other day while looking at my calendar. I’ve always loved the idea of seeing a team play in a different setting—the atmosphere must be incredible when you get out of your home bubble and head somewhere tropical or even just a different time zone. It feels like a real event when it happens.
But honestly, I have mixed feelings about it. The logistics alone sound like a headache. Between the flights, the weird sleep schedules, and the sheer cost of moving an entire group of people across borders, I wonder if the "experience" outweighs the exhaustion. I've gone on trips for hobbies before where I ended up being too tired to actually enjoy the thing I traveled for.
Do you guys think playing away games in international spots is actually a benefit for the players, or is it just a massive logistical sinkhole for the schools?
