Kids Sports
Should Kids Sports Be Competitive?
Most people would acknowledge that taking part in sports is something that is good for children. It can help kids to exercise and mix with other children. Health is clearly a key concern for many parents right now.
The reality is that far too few children get enough exercise. When combined with poor eating habits, this can become a real issue. Many health experts suggest that childhood obesity, for instance, is frequently associated with health problems in later life.
To a certain extent, we may think of this as being a somewhat frightening thought. As parents, we usually look to take the best course of action for our kids. As a result, we hate to think that we might do something that could actually be causing harm. It's not particularly nice to think that eating and fitness habits at an early stage in life can have such a significant impact.
Given this background, it's understandable that many parents are so keen to encourage their children to get involved in sports. Those sports that are particularly associated with active behaviour are most likely to appeal.
But how much encouragement should you offer? Is it possible for things to go so far? There's no doubt that some parents like to see their children doing well in a competitive sense. This means that they may feel that it's not enough for their children to simply take part in an activity. Rather, there's an expectation that the kids should win.
This can cause problems in some instances. If children feel that their parents expect them to win, then this can add a level of pressure that they would rather avoid. This may mean that the kids actually dread taking part in a sporting activity, instead of looking forward to it. If you're not careful, you may find that your children forget about getting involved in sports and decide to stay at home.
You also may want to think about how other adults will react if you are trying to make sure that your kids are always competitive. It may be sending out the wrong message.
A better approach could be to encourage your kids to simply take part. Remind them that sports aren't just about those who win. They could be reminded of the importance of making friends and having fun. They are, after all, still children. If the pressure is removed then it's likely that they'll perform better, which is an irony that many parents seem to miss.
If your child is not the star player on the team then this needn't be a reason to despair. Many teams and associations even offer trophies for kids who regularly attend, or those who show a great attitude. This is surely the right way to approach things.

How Do I Organize All My Kids Different Sports Schedules?
I have kids that all have different sports and after school schedules and was wondering how other parents handle organizing everything?
Please provide details!
Thanks
While I am not a parent, in high school I had a very hectic schedule as did my two sister, this is what my parents did.
On the wall in the kitchen was a large white board (available at most home stores) and they have used black electrical tape to mark off time blocks in a grid format. It had 8 columns and I forget how many rows. Each column (except the first which was reserved for the time) was a day of the week. Each row had a time period...I think one hour blocks from like 8 to 8 and then a blank one at the bottom. As we had appointments and practices, we (as we got older) or my parents would list it on the board for the time period we had to be where. We each had our own color marker (which we got to pick). They also used the board to note when it was their week to drive the carpool.
Speaking of which is another suggestion for you. Talk to the other parents if your kids are involved in team sports. Odds are just like you they have different aged kids who have to be in 30 places at once. You can share carpooling which can relieve some of your stress. Get enough parents willing to do it you might only have to drive the carpool to one practice a month.
