Yesterday I was talking to a friend of mine from high school who I haven't talked to in a while since he moved away. He was talking about his daughter who is a freshman now. And he ended up saying she's a 5 sport athlete and on top of that she's a cheerleader for football and basketball. In the fall she's got flag football, volleyball, and cheerleading. In the winter basketball and cheerleading. And in the spring she plays softball and soccer. And on top of those in the summer she plays tennis, and attends a beach volleyball camp. It doesn't affect her grades as she's getting straight A's. It exhausted me just hearing everything she's involved in. I couldn't imagine trying to balance that many things when I was in high school. You have the classic 3 sport, 3 season multi-sport athlete. But multiple sports during the same season over multiple seasons. I guess it depends on every person but how many sports is too many? What does everyone else think?
