re: How do you know when your kid has "it" in sports?

There's so many factors it's hard to tell. Some people say by 7th or 8th grade you can tell but those are the ones at the tippy top. Like people who could start on most varsity teams on 8th grade good. Some kids get burnt out or develop early and peak as a 12 year old. Some are late bloomers and may blow up when there 16 or 17.
