[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the same season. Just no. Aside from getting homework and stuff like that done, when you commit to a team, you owe it to that team to be able to give 100%. 100% effort and 100% time. I was a coach for a varsity sport and also for a college sport and if you missed a practice (for reasons other than a family emergency or illness) you sat the next game. Dedication and reliability are important skills to teach. She has a team counting on her. It isn’t fair if she’s dragging ass or can’t make meets or practices because of a sport conflict. [/quote] I’m the poster whose kid does XC and swimming. If you’re gonna have a second sport, swimming works well. Early morning practices generally don’t conflict with much, you generally have some flexibility with your choice of practices, and if you miss a meet, it doesn’t impact the team much. So scheduling wise, it’s doable. It’s whether your child has that much stamina to give 100% to both. YMMV [/quote]
