[quote=Anonymous]My brother had I good approach, I thought. He insisted that each of his 4 children try out for a varsity sport. It was a requirement. Anything they wanted. I don't really know what he would have done if they hadn't made -any- varsity sport ... this is a smaller town and perhaps it's not outrageous to assume they could make it. The results were: football, tennis, 2 in golf. At least in our FCPS area there are no-cut sports, typically cross country. In this area, you could insist they particiate is some school sport. I think the team experience is important I actually would have also insisted that they participate, in some way, at least once in awhile, in other school experiences: Homecoming or Prom, or at least an occasional special dance. With or without a date.[/quote]
