    Two very good post. I agree you have to let them decide what they want to do , if you force it on them they may lose their love for the sport. IMO I think kids are specializing too early and that is causing burnout for whatever sport it is. I encouraged my son to try everything and never kept him from playing any sport, they will find what fits them best.

    Youth and middle school need to be separated, if you want the season to continue add a JV tournament or something of that nature. You are taking away from both levels when you make youth up to fourteen years of age. I understand that we are doing our best to get more kids involved in the sport but I do not think this is the right answer. I had athletes wrestle youth and middle both and I just think it needs to be separated somehow, not sure how but there has to be a better way.JMO.

    I have had this argument with coach Smith on this.  Years ago when all this started the school I was involved with told me that the middle school is covered under the high school team.  The old AD and the new AD today still say this is true today. 

    We are a school sponsored team , my AD assured me we are covered.

    That could be a valid point.  Our school doesnt provide travel for MS sports of any kind, so I wouldnt know.   Lets also remember though that only about 40% of the teams are school teams.  You take away the 4 school teams in our area that dont provide travel via bus and you the numbers are less.  However like I said, a rotation plan of District host elevates this. 

    Only 40% of the teams at the middle school level are school teams?
