Athletics Are Taking Over Our Family Schedule

Athletics Are Taking Over Our Family Schedule

Athletics are a major part of your family’s rhythm.

Games, practices, travel, ceremonies, and awards fill the calendar.
And senior year adds emotional weight to all of it.

CHECK FIRST
Pause and consider:
Which commitments are required?
Which ones are optional?
What does my senior care about most?
Am I trying to do everything out of obligation?

Athletics often carry deep meaning—but not every moment carries the same weight.

THEN
Choose how to approach this season.

Option 1: Prioritize presence over perfection
Being there when it matters most is enough.

Option 2: Decide what you can release
Missing something doesn’t mean missing the season.

Option 3: Acknowledge the ending
Senior-year athletics often carry both pride and grief.

PAUSE
You don’t have to attend everything to honor what this has meant.

NOTES / REFLECTION
Which moments feel most meaningful?
What feels like too much?
Where can I simplify without regret?
