[quote=Anonymous]The article mentions the benefits of sports teams: the many benefits of high-school sports: exercise, lessons in sportsmanship and perseverance, school spirit, and just plain fun I would add the ability to work with others and develop leadership and subordinate skills/relationships. I think most people who advocate team sports to help their children develop interpersonal, group, and leadership skills. These soft credentials are very important in today's job market. Being smart is not good enough today. Employee need to be able to manage, coordinate, self-promote, and advocate. Schools do not do a good job of teaching these skills.[/quote]
