[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]do not do both.  The schedules are incompatible and each weekend you are likely to screw over one team.  The travel soccer coaches do a good job of of intimidating their players and telling them that they will not get any playing time if they don't make soccer their number #1 priority.  Travel baseball coaches tend to be more flexible, but then often the team will not have enough players to play their best (i.e., have enough pitchers, catchers) because the squads tend to be leaner in an effort to make sure no kids spend too much time on the beach.  My kids have been on teams where some players tried to do both and everyone was unhappy about it.[/quote]

BS. DD's team does well (plays EDP and has always finished in the top 3 of their division) and has multiple girls playing two or more travel sports. The coach is reasonable - he wants one practice a week at minimum and advanced notice if a kid has to miss a game or tournament. They normally have 5 subs, so two or three kids missing a game just means more playing time [/quote]
