[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of high schools are absolutely huge now. In many sports only top travel players have a shot at making JV, much less varsity. Obviously this trickles down and makes the youth sports scene far more competitive- working towards making a HS roster by age 10. It is crazy. There at exceptions. Many smaller privates in my area have plenty of availability on rosters- most students can make any team they want (though they may not see much playing time) and can play multiple seasonal sports. In the small town where I grew up (high school has about 800 students 9-12) it is much the same. Many all-conference varsity players on those teams would be iffy to make JV at huge suburban high schools. Huge high schools are the driver of most of this- especially in UMC areas. [/quote] Competition is insane at schools in expensive neighborhood because everyone has $$$. Schools like McLean, Langley, and Oakton are always like this.[/quote]
