[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a lot of girls and boys who played college soccer, lacrosse and field hockey who blew out a knee or achilles heel. Cross country kids seem to get fractures in their feet. [b]Playing college sports is never as glamorous as you think. [/b] It's certainly worth it for some, but overall, from my vantage point, I don't think it is. Certainly not when you factor in all the time and money you spent to groom them from age 5-18. I think parents just refuse to give up the dream and the sunken costs are so great. [/quote] Well, yes. If you are playing a college sport for the glamour, then you will probably be disappointed. (Save maybe for the kids who play basketball/football in major sports conferences.)[/quote]
