If you happened to miss David Epsteins article in the The New York Times on June 10th entitled, Sports Should Be Childs Play, we encourage you to give it a quick read. Epstein states there is an, ...epidemic of hyperspecialization that is both dangerous and counterproductive... in #youthsports in America. Epstein encourages parents to have their kids play multiple sports at least through age 12, and he reports a perhaps counter intuitive finding: kids that specialize later actually achieve higher ultimate levels of competition. This complements the fact that they also suffer fewer overuse injuries. nytimes/2014/06/11/opinion/sports-should-be-childs-play.html?_r=0
