[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think everyone who with kids in travel sports has aspirations of college sports or scholarships. We have kids in travel sports and one of them might not continue past middle school. Our kids are also in band, chess and other activities that they have little to no hope of a future beyond high school. But it’s good for their social skills, their brains, and it keeps them from becoming the kids that loiter in the park on the weekends. They learn to take risks, discover their inner drive, work with teammates, and have a lot of fun. I would say that’s true for a lot of the families in our kids’ sports and activities. [/quote]
