I have a friend who watched DD play and turned to me and said - “if I could do it all over I would have picked a sport and stuck to it instead of playing everything. I’m good at all sports but I would have liked to be great at one like your DD” that was years ago and it still sticks with me. When DD was little she played VB, BB and SB and I found my Murphy’s law was if there were practices or games they would always always conflict. Always. I just couldn’t do it as a parent and made her drop a sport . I had 2 other kids that didn’t play sports but did do scouts and band and a husband that traveled for work so I just could not do it. I did “encourage (make)” daughter try out for her HS VB team freshman year and she made JV and hated every minute of it. That’s when she decided only softball from then on and I am totally fine with that because guess what happened during VB season..... schedules conflicted between VB which she hated and her TB SB which she loves. Because our schedules always conflict. Always......
