My friend's nephew was 16 - so yes it was teens who were trying out for national teams and all.
@Itstrainingtime I understand your post about flying. I love it - but I'm weird. I can completely understand not liking the security theater, crowding, etc. But if it helps, flying has never been safer in America - ever - which is awful to say given last night's horrific accident. The Auto Train looks like a great way to get down to Florida - relaxing and all. Slow travel can often be the best kind of travel.
Also, the guy who spoke this morning and blamed DEI is a garbage human being and his comments are, as always, abhorrent.
