We don't have a car. How can my child get to practice?

- EditorsBest answerFactor transport in when choosing a program. Check the training location on the program page and favour venues close to home or near SkyTrain and bus routes. Ask whether other parents on the team would share a carpool rota; many families do. Whether your child can take transit alone depends on their age and maturity, so ride along a few times first. Check when practices end, too, and whether getting home in the evening is practical. Also, a coach driving a child alone goes against the Rule of Two, so it is best avoided.
