[quote=Anonymous]It’s been this way for awhile now. If a kid wants to have any chance to make a high school team, travel teams or extensive training/lessons will generally be required. The age at which one must start (lest they fall behind) keeps shifting ever downward. I don’t think most parents enjoy this, or even approve of the general concept TBH- but usually set principles aside for their kid’s well being. I don’t think it is about college apps for most- they just want their kid to have an activity or sport that he/she can enjoy in high school. Acceptance into top schools is a total crapshoot regardless. [/quote]
