Playing multiple sports in high school is a good thing. Some of the best pros in the world didn’t specialize in high school.
Being well-rounded is important. Student council, music, arts, working a job.. Do many things in high school to build a well-rounded foundation for your future.
Operating within multiple social circles = growth. If you play baseball and are on the debate team you will be a part of two distinct cultures. If you play football and basketball you will progress in a multitude of ways based on the different roles you play on each team, the different styles of coaching, and the culture of each program.
Maybe you are all-conference in volleyball but a backup in basketball which you worked equally as hard in. This will teach you a lot about discipline, being a great teammate, role acceptance, and leadership.
Adding a part-time job to your schedule in high school is another great way to become well-rounded and create a foundation for the future. It will teach you how to answer to authority, how to work with others, customer service, how to stand up for yourself, money management and more.
Diversity in activities and social circles is important. It can be a generational talent like Aaron Judge playing three sports. It can look like a kid at a large school who participates in one sport, one non-sport extracurricular, and works part time. It can be the small school kid who does everything and still helps out with the family business.
It’s important for high school students to load up on activities which stimulate personal, academic, and future growth and avoid spending countless hours staring at screens playing video games, scrolling on TikTok, and watching TV.

Starting new traditions is the one thing as a new head coach I aspired to accomplish this season and we did that this morning! Had our first combined practice with our middle school teams! What a fun experience and a great way to build the program! @scsmustangs
Effective coaches don't focus so much on rules, but on culture and expectations. If you focus on rules, you will spend most of the year enforcing them. But if you focus on culture and expectations, you rarely have to defer back to the rules. 🤔
My only rule ⤵️
