[quote=Anonymous]My kids all do only one travel sport, and then rec sports as they prefer (as long as the overlap with travel is minimal). For example: travel baseball (spring and fall), rec basketball, summer swim team. Something like that. In the event of overlap they choose their travel sport. For all the kids we know that have done multiple travel sports (that conflict)- they end up choosing around age 12. Usually this is because absences from practice or games stop becoming as tolerated….in elementary school it was considered not a big deal to miss travel for another sport occasionally (like miss soccer for a swim meet or vice versa) but towards middle school is becomes less acceptable. Also middle school becomes more homework heavy which adds additional strain. [/quote]
