[quote=Anonymous]My kid (now 15) has played a ton of sports over the years (soccer, baseball, flag football, basketball, tennis, diving, hockey, and lacrosse). He's only played hockey at a travel level (and has played at the highest level in the area for the past 4 years). Hockey is now a 9-10 month a year sport, but we've always tried to make sure he has a few months almost completely "off". All the other sports have always been a rec level, and for the past 5 years, he's always made the decision that hockey is no. 1, and he'll miss just about anything else for a hockey related activity. His rec coaches have been OK with this, but they are mostly our friends at this point. I think this has made him a better athlete, and I doubt that its really held him back in hockey. But we know some kids who focus strictly on hockey, and they haven't burned out (yet).[/quote]
