[quote=Anonymous]Unless it is a “learned sport” like golf, tennis where parents invested thousands of hours it is hard to get an athletic scholarship unless the right build It also takes parental commitment. Both my parents were poorer immigrants who gave a rats ass about sports. Would not drive me, buy me sneakers or chip in. I also had to work part time. Funny in college I was recruited to join the scholarship lacrosse team. I never played. Coach told me at six foot two inch, 195 pounds, in shape and you ran track weirdly I had the body for lacrosse. It was just defense on practice team and garbage time. But sports are a lot about physical skills. You can’t teach your kid to be six foot five inch 290 pounds and be able to run quick to get a football scholarship. Golf or tennis maybe. [/quote]
