[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My vote is it's because the crazy parents push soccer too hard too fast too much. Kids at age 9 and 10 are practicing two times sometimes three per week, and traveling every weekend. They just want to hang out with her friends...[/quote] 3 times per week and then weekend games is standard for travel. Many more are putting their kid into training the other days. The trend is more, more, more...for FOMO. Some Clubs also enter many more tournaments at the young ages than others which means missing holiday weekends and friend's parties, etc. The majority of those soccer kids I've seen quit in middle school. Many pick up track/cross country or something else in HS. [/quote]
