If child identified themselves as soccer players, or just athletes, then this needs to be changed. There’s no guarantee all all kids that tryouts for high school or college soccer will make the team. What happens then?  This pandemic might have exposed depression in children that have always had depression issues to begin with.

There are many forms of exercises and soccer is just one of them. Not having no organized sports doesn’t mean a person can’t exercise or continue to practice.

There are obvious benefits to youth who participate in team sports.  Many ADHD kids who struggle in the classroom find success with sports, which increases self esteem. And there are teams for kids who don't make the high school team. Yes they can continue to exercise but many won't do it on their own.

My ds has adhd and he was a tornado march-june. Bouncing off the walls at 9pm at night.  We did activity but he didn't love it (working out with mom) and I can't wear him out. I read during that time the positive impact consistent activity as on these kids and allowing them to burn off their energy so to speak.

Restarting soccer has been a huge mood stabilizer for him.  I really hope we can keep it consistent. [/quote]
