The competitions are not in the parks; they're in the ESPN Wild World of Sports complex.
The problems that people encouter with these competitions are not in the parks; they're at the resorts. Specifically Pop Warner is known for lack of supervision from adults, drunk and rowdy adults, late night and early morning cheer practice, fights between football teams and other rowdiness and loud, rude behaviours at all hours. If you can change to a value other than ASSports then I think you'll be much happier.
We are, well, were staying at ASMu, but I've talked it over with my boyfriend and he's ok with upgrading to POFQ. Especially after mentioning the cheerleaders during the first two nights we would be there. And I'm glad they aren't gonna be at any of the parks!
The only time we've had any problems with other guests at a value resort is 2am loud drunken swimmers (something that can happen at any resort) and people who propped their door with that lock and then let it bang shut as they came in and out of the room around midnight (also something that can happen at any resort). We have been able to hear young children crying through connecting doors but generally we can also then hear parents trying hard to sooth those young children and it simply doesn't last long. The majority do seem to try to keep their children under control and try to be considerate of those around them. It's the minority who we hear about though and it's truely luck of the draw as to who will be near them.
If people are trying hard to sooth their crying kids then that doesn't bother me because they are trying and not just letting their kid cry its head off. Hopefully I will be ok in POFQ.
One last thing. You don't need to apologize or explain yourself. People who don't want to be disturbed by unsupervised children have as much right as anybody else to enjoy WDW at any time that works for them. I don't want to be disrupted by unsupervised children either and I do have and like kids. I'm very tollerant of most things; just don't wake me up at night and don't put me in any danger and don't do anything offensive in my presence. I don't think that's a lot to ask and I think you're really just wanting something similar which is totally reasonable IMO.
Thank you. I appreciate that so much. That is exactly what I want. I will probably be too amazed by Disney to notice any of the unsupervised children, plus I will be talking my boyfriend's ears off because it is his first time visiting Walt Disney World. I will be too excited to notice anything else.
