This is actually the least of my concerns. Sports means we spend a lot more time together than other families I know.

My daughter is a good student, and the interesting thing is that since her injury, with a lot of downtime on her hands (instead of being scheduled to be in precise places and having set times for homework everyday) her homework suffered. And her grades a little bit. I talked with a parent who accepted a spot for his daughter to the top NY team outside NYC. It required a lot of travel and carpooling for practice. I turned down a similar offer for my daughter precisely because of the travel, even though the team is subsidized and the tuition considerably cheaper than her current team. When i checked in with the parent, he said all the carpool girls do homework in the car, where they are not allowed to talk, and that her grades rose a lot (B+ to an A student).

We really spend a lot of time together because of sports.
