[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell me again how AAP is different from travel sports? No one complains about that. [/quote] Travel sports teams would be akin to having advanced math classes or leveled reading groups. No one is arguing against those. AAP is more like having your kid be declared to be "gifted" in sports in general as a 7 year old, automatically getting a seat on any and all sports teams through middle school, and [b]not having to play on the same fields ever[/b] as the non "sports gifted" kids. [/quote] Well they do get separate coaches and field times in travel. And the number of kids who move into travel is fairly small. AAP also lets in kids after 2nd grade.[/quote] Not "ever". It's only for 4 years (3rd through 6th) during which time other kids can qualify to join. Things start leveling out in MS and at HS there's no difference in choices available..[/quote]
