[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question from a happy parent. My 11yo kid has been playing for the same club for years. He is not a superstar but he easily made A team every year. His team is doing very well, winning a lot of games in league and tournaments. He’s happy and committed. I can’t think of any reason to move him, but can’t help wondering if I missed something in the big picture. I am not looking at scholarships or pro probabilities, even though my kid aspires to be one. I just thought it’d be nice to have a hobby and some friends and maybe a boost to college admissions. Any advice?[/quote] Looks like you are in a good spot, you hit on the important things such as "he's happy and committed" . I didn't see things fall apart until u13/u14 when kids started to drop like flies, mostly from distractions like girls and wanting a more active social life, some when to other sports. [/quote]
