[quote=Anonymous]Some kids are very into their sport from an early age. Some parents are psycho. In a lot of areas if you aren’t playing club by 4th/5th you probably don’t have the chance to play high school. We had a fantastic time for the most part with baseball. A great dynamic with the other families and many good memories. That son was so in love with baseball. Not everything was positive, but overall it was good. Softball was a toxic mess. So much vicious, ugly behavior. So the answer is, lots of reasons, some good, some bad, some kind of out of your control. Yes there are many parents who are certain their kid will be recruited athlete or pro. Lots of parents doing it for themselves. I contemplated moving to my cousin’s small town where this world does not exist- the sports revolve around school and that’s it. Overall I think the club system is not a good thing, but if it dominates where you live and your kid is very into a sport, it is almost impossible to avoid.[/quote]
