[quote=Anonymous]I agree that sports for someone who is not recruitable aren’t particularly important for admission. Lots of ESs aren’t particularly important to admissions, doesn’t mean they have no value to kid. I do think kids should do what they love most, sports or otherwise. But my big issue with varsity sports is those coaches OWN the kids’ schedules from pre-season to playoffs and they’re really isn’t much room for a lot of other activities that would give kids a chance to grow and achieve some cool things and show leadership in different ways. So the three season athlete is in a bit of a pickle in my opinion.[/quote]
