[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's REC. Who cares?  You are a parent volunteer coming here to ask advice?  [/quote]

The kids care. Both the strong ones and the not so strong. [/quote]

But it's rec?!

I mean on a certain level? You can't care too much beyond playing because it's fun.  DD figured that out at age 8. She played Rec with friends and Travel because she wanted to actually learn how to play to not lose.  I'm not suggesting Travel is the end all and be all but practically speaking, Rec is truly about playing for fun.  Most kids k ok n Rec enjoy not having the pressure of winning.  To win requires actual skill development.  People always say winning shouldn't be everything and I agree but there's such a thing as effort and training makes you better.  You can't have your cake and eat it too in life!  It's why I always said even if I don't care for a particular athlete I respect them putting in the development to be at a certain level.  It's not just that easy to want to win and win.
