You are delusional if you think you can coach a third grader into being an elite athlete at any sport. Some kids are born to compete, and will enjoy it and excell no matter the out of season training or extra camps. These teams will take your money as long as you have it. Young athletes have to play multiple sports and enjoy their social life without parents hanging over their shoulders. Attitudes like yours are the reason kids quit and become losers hanging out under a bridge, they will be the superstars of bong hits.
Third graders can barely wipe their own [lacrosse]. Stop pushing them to be something you wish you had been. Let them go play on the playground.
