[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s life. I was able to play travel sports growing up so don’t make baseball or soccer at my high school. I wrestled, which at most places is a zero cut sport. Every school has a zero cut sport. Even the private schools need to fill out water polo, wrestling, crew and track teams. Pick a sport you can make freshman year, apply yourself, and make yourself a better person by overcoming adversity.[/quote]

...and sometimes the new sport becomes their ticket to great things.  I know two kids cut from the baseball team who then picked up Ultimate in HS.  Both ended up making the DC Breeze professional Ultimate team in HS (not much $$$s as a player, but they have large social media followings which have been reasonably lucrative) and one played on a team that finished 2nd in the NCAA.

Ultimate is another no-cut sport BTW and just great all around.  Maybe its best feature is there are no Referees, Umps, etc.  The players all referee each other...though admittedly there aren't many rules either.[/quote]
