You even see it in soccer.My daughter is in a U8 Elite program playing in Calgary Minor Soccer Association they practise 2-3 times a week plus one game/week.
Last weekend the opposition's coach (a dad) refused to play them because he didn't want to lose in a game that score is not kept, and just held a team practice on their end of the field for the entire hour, so the girls on my daughters team played freeze tag and stared accross the field.
Elite teams, or the idea of them are not for everyone.
