[quote=Anonymous]Coaches (and some parents here) need to get a grip. There are often diminishing returns to holding kids at practice longer at the younger ages. Kids who are sleep deprived can’t benefit from their hard work as much as kids who get enough sleep. The brain needs sleep to consolidate learning. People need to stop acting like 8 year old sports is the be all end all. Half the kids who are good at 8 flame out, and other kids who catch up end up passing them in the teen years. Everyone needs to just calm down and take a balanced approach in elementary school. [/quote]
