[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly you do not have a child with a passion for a sport. It's absolutely part of who they are and what makes them happy. My kid is at a NESCAC school happily playing her sport on their D3 team. Had she gone Ivy or another big D1 she would only be on their club team, and it was important to her to play on the school team. There are many great reasons to go D3. My kid is happy and playing the sport she loves. And her school is great, just not a "top school".[/quote]

What happens after the 4 yrs of college?  At some point, the sports stop.  Or they end up playing for the local adult rec league which seems to the same as intramural.  Sports maybe a part of who they are and what makes them happy, but for most kids, sports have to end sometime.[/quote]

The D3 athletes (and some D1 athletes) coach youth sports, volunteer for Special Olympics, coach for their local HS. They do play their sport "intramural" ... but their intramural is only former D1 or D3 athletes, it's more of a networking event. [/quote]
