[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Loss of interest/passion, and not really connecting with teammates interpersonally (no major issues, just not close friends). Coach was good. Not connecting with teammates is what I see A LOT. They get along OK but really as they get to late ES/MS they are more like frenemies. I say this as someone who was involved with travel teams until recently as a non-parent. The parents dynamics are also fascinating. Some people really get hurt when they realize their and/or their children’s friendships were not as genuine as they believed.[/quote] I'm not even sure they cared about each other enough to be frenemies, TBH. Probably the best analogy would be the way you would feel at a forced lunch with coworkers you had little in common with and not that much to talk about with. You don't hate them, but you don't want to be there either.[/quote] I had to do a spit-take. I’ve seen plenty of teams like that even pretty young ones.[/quote]
