[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think y'all are missing the point that to excel in a sport kids have to start early and play club, and clubs are expecting three times a week practices by age 8/9. So if your kid isn't ready to specialize in just one sport and wants to keep options open across two or more sports, they are going to be "overscheduled" with activities. But whether it's overscheduled or not really depends on your family dynamics and whether the kid is happy and getting unstructured time too.[/quote] Lots of kids change sports or move from rec to club later.[/quote]
