"The family atmosphere within the teams you play for and groups that you are around every weekend out. You meet great people week in and week out and create friendships that will last a lifetime. No matter what skill level you are at, we all play this game because we love it. If we didn't, then we shouldn't spend the time on the road, whether flying three hours or driving six, to do something that we didn't like."
