[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like the issue is more scheduling vs specialization. Our DS is very athletic and played multiple sports when he was younger, but by hs the list had narrowed to one primary sport with two lower commitment sports. When he was young, we tried to have one primary sport per season (even though in reality a lot of sports are actually year round). If lacrosse works for your family, have that be the priority spring sport and then add in whatever else makes sense. Flag football was one that was very low time commitment that we added on for fall and spring. DS did rec or house basketball in the winter because that was typically a 1-2 day/week commitment.

Oh that’s a good idea, to throw in flag football instead during spring. It’s a lower commitment and he loves flag football. I hate to decide for him and he’s good at baseball. He just is already telling us he loves lax and it makes the most sense for our schedule. A lot of the people doing both have had to miss half the games. [/quote]
