Spot on again, Mike. And a corollary to this is the demand that kids focus only on 1 sport. When we were kids the biggest studs in HS were multi-sport athletes. Now, coaches won’t let them do that because they also dominate their off season time.
I totally agree with you. High school sports shouldn't be isolated to one sport. Look at baseball, so many kids throw their arm out at an early age. Tommy John surgery used to be for veterans in the MLB, now kids coming out of high school are having to have the surgery.
