[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uh, you answered your own question -- you know people do club sports in elementary.

Are you asking just about the DC area, do you not live here? Yes elementary kids in the DC area do club sports. This would be easy to discern from just a cursory look at the sports forums on here, where people extensively discuss year-round swim, travel teams, etc. [/quote]

Many people are commenting saying it’s crazy and ridiculous but it seems to be the norm in my local area. [/quote]

Doesn’t mean that the norm in your area isn’t made up of parents who haven’t got a clue for healthy schedules.   75% of these kids will walk away from sports.  True athletes who can play every sport well are rare.  Smart parents will work with child on how to choose what they would like to play.  Sports that can’t fit in their schedule but the child really enjoys it can be played informally at a gym or with some local kids.

Parents who overdo it in elementary school will regret it.   [/quote]
