So 14 y/o DD came home from 9th grade welcome night super excited about HS sports. She spoke to a couple of coaches and would like to try out for volleyball in the fall and soccer in the spring. She has played volleyball for 2 years and really loved it, however it really stunts her growth in gymnastics. She repeated L7 this year because she missed so much practice in the fall. I am a little happier about soccer as it falls at the end of meet season. I have let her make her decisions regarding staying at current gym and playing other sports but I am wondering if lack of any teammates at her level or higher is finally getting to her as well as a not great relationship with HC. Does anyone have a L8 gymnast playing HS sports? I tried to tell her that most of the soccer player's have played since infancy. Maybe she could goal keep. I don't know. I don't think I want for her to retire. But sometimes I wish she would, after 8 years, I am tired.
