Re: How many off season events?

I believe 1058 is going to 6 in total this year, which is about their average. 229 is hoping to go to one in the fall.

In the end it comes down to your teams competitive philosophy and all of the logistics. 229 is mentored mostly by college students so the team doesn't meet or travel between the months of May and September. 1058 meets every week throughout the year so they have a very different situation. Not to mention how much location matters: New England is filled to the brink with offseason events, while NY has a smaller amount.
