[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sophomore wants to quit club soccer. They are on a very competitive public high school team (100 kids try out for 40 spots across both teams, vast majority play club and many have quit MLS next). It's just a lot to have 5 soccer things per week between two teams when you're not one of the top kids and want to do other things with your time, especially before college applications. Absolutely no aspirations of playing in college.

We have no real issue with the quitting so long as he spends his newly free time meaningfully, but we don't think he grasps how much this threatens his changes of making Varsity again Junior year, and he is pretty confident he will if he continues to train on fitness and play casually on occasion.

Anyone have experience with quitting a decent club team and still making a very competitive HS team halfway through HS? [/quote]

It's called burn out.  Why not play high school and move to a club that plays a different season?[/quote]

Club is year round. [/quote]
