BC Men's soccer

My kid was told this at an Ivy no less. At some D1 schools, depending on when the team practices, it may not be logistically possible to complete the degree requirements AND play soccer.

It can be done and does happen, but rarely. Internships and travel abroad is tough with most D1 programs. Coaches tell you there's three parts to school - sports (all they care about), academics and a social life. One has to get cut, what will it be?

Oh, and sleep gets cut too. Some teams practice at 5-6am before classes then again after classes, or have meetings until really late. It's good to ask coaches what the team schedule looks like. Just don't make a face when they tell you answers you don't like. Just nod and smile :)

That would be a late start in the youth hockey world

Happiest day ever when one of my kids quit hockey :)

Anyway, mine has workouts at an ungodly hour as well. They're a morning person fortunately. But if you're so tired you can barely function you're not going to perform well
