[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's another thing I hate about these travel sports. Kids age out of rec. Why? Why does a certain age mean that you can no longer play a sports just for enjoyment and fun?[/quote] It doesn't. Many local rec league sports go all the way through high school in Fairfax County--which is nice because it is basically impossible to make the high school teams. All the parents I know just want their kid to be able to play in high school. No one has delusions beyond that. I feel bad for the boys who have only played popular rec sports showing up for tryouts and being shocked that they are cut the first night--no one told them [b]they had to do years of travel to even have a shot[/b].[/quote] Is the bolded true? Is it really so hard to make the hs team that, unless you've done years of travel teams, there's almost no chance?[/quote]
