[quote=Anonymous]What do you mean by make it? Make the team? Get recruited for college? It might matter more for the latter because it’s harder to get the playing time the later you start. That being said, there is a funny thing that happens to boys at puberty. The kids who were stand out players in elementary and early middle school sometimes fall away and kids who just pick up a sport in middle school turn out to be the strongest players a few years later. You can’t really predict who will be really good at a sport before puberty. An athletic kid can often switch sports in middle school and catch up in sports like lacrosse. It’s harder in sports like ice hockey or gymnastics where the learning curve is longer for basic skills. A few of my son’s friends who didn’t start lacrosse until 6th or 7th are now playing D3. Maybe it’s different for D1. I don’t personally know anyone who went D1. [/quote]
