[quote=Anonymous]We got my DD in club because she loved her sport, not because she would have any chance at being recruited. She is not at the level where colleges would fight over her and she will likely never get there. But after one year of club, we started thinking that having a team sport on her resume would help her college application, despite not being recruited and / or playing for the college team. Just to be clear, we are aiming for a good enough in-state college, not for an Ivy. We hope she will keep playing her sport long after club is not an option: we are not pushing the sport as a "hook" for college. [/quote]
