Real competitive sports don't happen until HS
If you know that your kids are NCAA material, then it's pretty obvious that you need to send them to a division 1 sports program, to maximize their chances for recruitment.
For the rest of us, however, many of us will be playing b-ball at the YMCA so why not just get your kids over there, to start with.
you are missing the whole point of doing sports.

truly inspiring story. you think your childhood was tough? well, her story will kick your ass.
