[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once it stops being fun. If the teammates become overly competitive/mean, especially on texts. Not supportive, perhaps discouraging coach. Lack of growth as a player if stuck in a role/position they didn't want. Too many injuries. When they stop wanting to go/practice. Starts complaining that there's no break/no opportunity/flexibility by the club to do other things/sports [/quote] And how to address? Be flexible/supportive. Put the kid in charge of what's next. Maybe the level they are at is too much and something less intense is better, especially if they love soccer. At the same time, the frustrating moments could become opportunities to overcome and grow OR maybe it's time for a new sport or hobby. They may return to it at some point when ready. It's their life.[/quote]
