[quote=Anonymous]6. DO pay attention to overuse issues. Playing the same sport 300 days a year can overstress joints, tendons etc., not to mention burnout. Consider having your child try a "new" sport or play multiple sports for the school -- your future Mia Hamm might turn out to be a whiz at cross - country or crew or lacrosse or field hockey or track and field. Same goes for your future Hopkins laxer-- maybe he would enjoy football or wrestling too I actually don't agree with this one. My husband who played professional baseball had to focus on baseball by hs as some of the other sports could potentially cause problems with his shoulder muscle memory--he was a pitcher. Now most kids are not going to be in the big leagues but..if you have a child who is really showing promise in a certain sport...I would say that sometimes you do have to focus on that sport by hs..not talking five year olds but older kids.[/quote]
