Just be prepared for the horrendous politics that both you and your poor son are going to have to endure unless your son is truly good enough to play at a professional level, but that might not even be good enough! Then you have the drunk parents to contend with too! They are always a blast to deal with. Inside those large DD cups or Yeti type containers is not coffee.
That living vicariously thru their kids thing is definitely something I'm going to have to keep in mind. My wife and I have been trying to find a sport that would interest my son. We had him do soccer last year at 4, and he didn't seem all that interested. The coaches didn't seem to understand that active kids - want activity and action though. They had them doing drills and stuff like that. The interest lasted about two sessions and then it was done.
We just got back from his first lacrosse class. He beaned one kid in the head with his stick making a goal and got into a fight with another kid over the stick incident. So he might be a natural. We'll have to see how things develop.
