We don't believe in forcing anyone to put forth more effort than they're willing and able, but we do attempt to provide that for those who are ready. We highly recommend playing multiple sports early on, but we do suggest that you keep your current favorite sport going throughout the year on the off-days. As a parent, we feel if you don't provide this opportunity early on that you are - indeed - forcing them to be behind should they ever choose to want to play the sport at a higher level later on. With other cities getting better so early as well, we must keep pace so that our kids may have a choice.

PSYCHOLOGY section to understand our methodology in how we gently persuade players to actualize their full potential.
If kids still played outside these days, how many hours per day would you allow your kid to play outside? If you'd like, you can see us as that option. And realize these three things: 1) We're only one hour per day, 2) Everything we do is optional, and 3) You'd never fear a kid "burning out" if they're merely playing with their friends. The only difference here is the pressure placed on them by everyone in their lives... So know that we will try do our part to not impose those pressures, and we implore you to do the same.
