[quote=Anonymous]Good. I am an immigrant and cannot understand the obsession with sports in this country. I think sports are great for physical fitness and to learn a few important social skills - but I don't think sports should play any role at all into college admission. My kids only do sports for recreational purposes and I refuse to get drawn into those travel teams that costs thousands per year plus all that time commitment. No way. Unless a child has a really remarkable talent and loves it, it is not worthy it. [/quote]
