[quote=Anonymous]Just a note really: In suburban areas with large high schools the good old days before club/travel teams in a variety of sports did not mean that everyone who wanted got a chance to play. Largely kids who were early maturing and good athletes moved from being on the fall teams to the winter teams, and then to the spring teams. Go look at yearbooks from the 70s and 80s. Now, more kids play because more kids are good at specific sports. The football running back may be a good athlete, but he isn’t as good a baseball player as the kids who played travel baseball. Different kids make/play on different teams. And, of course, there are simply more sports to play than in the past. Still, overall, specialization means more kids are playing school sports. [/quote]
