[quote=Anonymous]I don't think that playing for a club and a middle-school team is pushing it too hard in terms of injury risk; overall there are many kids who spend that much time (and more) on their soccer training. That said, one does need to balance sports with academics. In terms of soccer development, your son is probably getting more out of the club practices than the school practices--even if he's getting little playing time during games, he's developing when he practices against these higher-level players--so I would prioritize those. Maybe talk with the middle school coach and explain the issue, and see if there is a way your son can skip every other school practice session or something like that.[/quote]
