Hey PokeParents and anyone else interested in chiming in.
This is our first full year of TCG tournament play and my daughters (both juniors) and I are considering attending Nationals for the first time. I was curious if other PokeParents and even Nats convention veterans would share their experiences, tips, good/bad things to help us get a glimpse of what to expect. I did look over a number of the pics from last year's convention so that was great.
The main thing I was concerned about was that it'll just be my kids and I attending so if all of us play (my daughters and myself) what is the environment like in the likely case that they finish games before I do. For our states tourney which seemed huge to us, but I'm sure will pale compared to Nats, it was nice to have family/friends nearby to help out.
Anyway, thanks for anyone willing to share their experiences and tips. Hope to see you all in June!
