I'll take a great player who comes to practice at the youth level 80% of the time any day of the week, especially if I know they're getting sports training in other areas/sports. Believe at all levels in treating players fairly, but not the same. Each individual & situation is different.

Never write or think that again. It can be done. Bring her to my daughter's school & I guarantee that she will start on both teams in high school. You're training an athlete at this stage. Yes, she's gaining sports specific skills, but long term athletic development should be your mission.

My daughter will play a double header in basketball and when we get home she heads right for the side yard where we have a basketball hoop. She is non-stop 24/7. <br /><br />Also I have seen lots of kids get burned out physically and mentally before high school. <br /><br />Thanks for adding to the STATS DADhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02064339642016778441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4831859586407532872.post-31494214782021036402012-05-05T16:50:07.677-04:002012-05-05T16:50:07.677-04:00This is a difficulty that so many kids face and it...This is a difficulty that so many kids face and it is driven, i believe by high school and college places. Kids want to play at the varsity level and many believe that they will get recruited to college. But what children cannot foresee is the risk of overuse injury from training so hard in the growing years and that very high levels of intensity at an early age can cause burn out and loss of Grown and Flownhttp://www.grownandflown.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4831859586407532872.post-6465766313605496802012-05-04T20:25:38.587-04:002012-05-04T20:25:38.587-04:00Sorry about the confusion, and that it took long t...Sorry about the confusion, and that it took long to response. I don't think gender here is the issue.<br />From what I've read, your daughter seems to be extraordinary good at sports, and she is probably at that age to where coaches want 100% or close to it.<br />I think you would know much more than me on this.

If you have a great player with a great attitude who is hindering that goal - by causing resentment - then you need to make a decision for the team. Our coach is essentially doing that in a very thoughtful and measured way.STATS DADhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02064339642016778441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4831859586407532872.post-86411187064096769242012-05-04T12:27:00.214-04:002012-05-04T12:27:00.214-04:00Given this delema what is your opinion.

It is best to commit to a sport and recognize as a result of the choice there are consequences. As a softball coach I would not select a 80 percent player because of the impact on the morale and lesson it teaches my players. My advice is play select ball in soccer and rec ball in Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4831859586407532872.post-37259427801519011342012-05-03T22:06:27.419-04:002012-05-03T22:06:27.419-04:00Thanks - I am trying to be honest.

There seems to be a great deal of discussion about the needs of the individual athlete but not of the team. It is totally inappropriate to have a great player practice 80% of the time but play more than that on the team. Think of it this way.
