My son plays wr and he has caught 80-100 passes a day since 6th grade, outside of practice. Elite will be football based training, but nothing beats catching balls daily to improve the hand eye coordination.

Your son is obviously not a gifted athlete so he should explore other talents he’s actually good at and develop those skills.
Why not both? All kids should do athletics, no matter what the sport or activity. Team sports teaches a lot of value, lessons, discipline, etc. working hard to get better is a life lesson as well. Not all kids have to be the best athlete to play, but all should be active in some athletics.

would not invest his time, energy, and my money into trying to make him a high school basketball player.
My son wanted to play football. Do you think I should tell him he’s not good enough to play or should I tell him that he needs to put in extra work to play?

If you put a pig on your roof and strap wings to it and shove it off the roof 10 times a day for a year - that pig will never learn to fly.

Because school is required for a future. Athletics is not.
True, but the lessons you learn from athletics such as work ethic, teamwork, overcoming adversity, leadership, etc. will be valuable once you enter the real world.
It's not always about scholarships or going pro. Sometimes you need to put in the extra work just to start on the high school varsity team.

Those kids work at Alpha. Seems like the right place to me.
