[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rec sports are like $100, if you can afford it and your kid enjoys it, keep signing up. For travel sports if they don't practice on their own they will get cut (happened to my 10 year old) so that's the natural consequence. For rec, if they are engaged and enjoying it, who cares.[/quote]

Almost 200 per season. Not “like $100”

Plus some gear

I say this, anyway, as someone who will pay for it bc I want them in a sport, not inactive.

But for some families it adds up. [/quote]

Which is why I said "if you can afford it". Rec soccer, flag football, and volleyball were all $125 per session for us. Yes plus uniform and gear, you're right. It's not nothing. But cost doesn't really factor in to it for us.

I actually do think a child should be progressing in skill, but that's because if they are engaged and show up wanting to play, they will naturally get better. It doesn't require outside training. But if you show absolutely no progress I would question the program or my child's fit for it. I've never seen them not learn at least one new thing per season.[/quote]
