[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a parent of multiple kids who love and benefit from sports, I find it depressing that conversations start with a definition of “good” or “an athlete” that is “can make their high school team” and then inevitably switches to “can play D1” or “will make the pros”. How discouraging is it that we are judging 99% of kids as “not good” or “not athletes”? [/quote] It’s just such a small percentage! agree [/quote] Agree. Also there are so many sports out there that don’t necessarily have every kids start at age 4 or 5. If a kid that has some athletic ability finds a sport they love later in life they have the potential to do really well. Golf, volleyball, rowing,etc. are all options.[/quote]
