Soccer and competition/competitive dance teams?

Question

if i join competitive dance teams, it mean i will most likely have 5 or 6 hours of dance a week. but i still want to play recreational soccer, which requires 2 hour and a half practices a week, with a game on saturdays.(but i only play soccer august-november) plus, im a straight A student and have to keep up with my school work. so would i be able to handle all of this? im going into 8th grade.

Answer 1

Yeah, of course you can do both. I've done both competive dance and soccer for years. Your life may get a little hectic. I'm also in 8th grade and this year I threw cheerleading in to the mix too. If your worried about still being an A student bring your homework with you, that's what I've alwys done and I'm still an A student. Also figure out what days you will have to miss for a competition or a game and talk to your coach/teacher. I play soccer in the spring so my life becomes a little busy but I love both.

Hope this helps and I completely understand what your going through. Good luck.
