Signing up a kid who wants to play but sucks is different from forcing a kid to
play who doesn’t want to and sucks at it. The former is great. The latter is not.
The test isn’t whether the kid is good or not, but whether they care or not.

Because it is good for kids to play on a team, work through struggles, and make friends. Rec level sports are important

I've coached little league for almost 10 years and get the frustration, but it is still a rec sport. For the most part

Let me ask you this. Are you coaching, and if so rec, or club? If you're not coaching, then why not?

You're the guy that has your kids in rec rather than a competitive league and are saying this. Hilarious.

if your kids only play bantam, maybe pump the brakes on telling people their kids suck at sports, lol.

Well you said "I bet your kids suck at sports." which is getting close. If you can't handle struggling kids on the team,

I've seen kids absolutely sick at a sport at 7 or 9 who then blossomed into an all star a few years later. You miss all
