Are high school sports necessary? Yes. High school sports teach you things you need to be successful in life. Same thing if you had a job. If you had to wake up for practice or a job, doing conditioning or working, you still have to do the extras even if you’re really tired. The morals too … they keep kids in school and bring people a lot closer.
