[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious: Do the majority of players on your kids’ teams have a parent who played? Personally, I feel like there are few families coming into this cold—almost all the kids I’ve encountered have a parent (usually dad) who played in HS or college.[/quote] Do kids perform differently than the ones whose parents didn’t play the sport?[/quote] Parents who played competitive sports can give their kids an advantage in terms of knowing what's best. Example is having a routine, knowing when to eat, drink, etc. Proper warm up and knowing how to practice/train to be more effective. On my kid's team a few kids do their own 5-6 minute warm up prior to practice. They're typically the better players. The rest just stand around or talk. And all the kids who warm up on their own, their parents all played sports.[/quote]
