Proposals to Limit Youth Sports by Age Levels
National Federation of State High School Athletic Associations wrapped a Williamsburg session with recommendations to keep school sports in proper focus. Proposals limit competition by age: elementary 12 and under to community contests, junior high 12-14 to community and county, high school 14+ to state level, ban all-star games, and national play only for high school graduates. Advocates say these measures curb over-organization and preserve character development. Critics say aims may target Little League and similar groups, but supporters stress protecting children from inflated values and parental hype.
