[quote=Anonymous]Interesting question. Some of this is definitely on your child's personality. DS and DD both participated in the same levels of soccer through U10, but DD really took to it and is all in while DS played more so because he liked the game overall, hanging out with friends, etc. DS's soccer level was never higher than the lowest level that allowed him to have a paid coach which was fine. It gave him something to do during the Fall and Spring and he played rec hoops with his buddies in the winter. DD really got into it and decided to join the travel team at U10 which meant she had to move away from dance which she really liked. Club soccer and the other associated trainings - speed, agility and strength training - has kept her busy and she is going to play at a large D1 university in college. It's been a great outlet for her. Both kids started the exact same, but ended up in two very different spots and we didn't treat them any differently. [/quote]
