[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at one of the latter three. The flip side of the experience is that any kid who wants to play a sport can walk on, and actually get playing time. It's not competitive at all to join the school teams for most sports. My kid (a decent athlete, but not a superstar) is not going to be playing in any championship title games. He'd much rather be on a team where he feels like a real contributor and gets lots of field time, than be at a school where he can't even make the team. [/quote] Same for us. I would like to add, since tryouts are not as competitive, the players seem less toxic to one another. I have daugters, so this is our experience. Not sure about what happens on the boys side. Expectations are low, so any win is a huge reason to celebrate! The girls are just happy to be on a team and make friends. Plus, anytime any team wins a few games in the post season, it seems as though the whole community comes out to support them. [/quote] No school gets more community support than Madison and it’s considered the top high school in NoVa for sports. [/quote]
