[quote=Anonymous]These days youth sports development has gotten so sophisticated - offseason training, nutrition, weight training, speed training. Playing multiple sports is comparatively a pretty inefficient way to improve athletic and sport specific development the older a child gets. The transition from multiple sports to focusing on a single sport, for serious athletes (want to make varsity at a competitive HS sport, or have a chance at playing in college), in my opinion should probably happen sometime in middle school. But they still do need to play the "main" sport year round prior to that or they can fall behind quickly.[/quote]
