[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s been well documented that most pro level athletes were multi sport kids and some of the most famous athletes didn’t even specialize in their current sport until they were past puberty. That being said, if you have a one-sport kid who wants more challenge than rec teams, something like soccer, it it will be hard to break in once they get older and their competition has been training 3 to 4 days a week. [/quote] This is good advice. Depends which sport. Soccer starts training often and early. Joining at 11 on lower level travel teams may be doable but likely not a possibility on top tier teams. Most tennis athletes that I know started very early and did not stray. For other sports, there seems to be more of an ability to jump in later.[/quote]
