Hard decision!

[All Chalked Up]

Hi,
I'm faced with a really hard decsion right now. I've been invited to join a national-level wrestling team so that I could possibly go to Canada Games, but the practices are 3 or 4 times a week for 3-4 hours, and they're in a hour away. Also If I end up going to Canada Games, maybe even *gulp* further, the hours will shoot sky-high! I really want to do this, but what I don't want to do is quit gymnastics! I'm even very reluctant to drop a couple hours, though if it means still doing gym AND wrestling I am willing.

ANY ADVICE YOU CAN GIVE, PLEASE DO! Thanks.

Is this a girls wrestling team? If you're good enough for NationalTeam, go for it

It's co-ed, though I'll be wrestling both genders in prackie and girls in competition.

You will only get one chance ~ don't be "greedy" just take what you have. In other words, you have a wonderful opertunity many others would love to have . . . use it. You will always be able to go back to gym to coach or practice. I would attend gym as much as possible but go for wrestiling. Unless, you have a chance at college or higher level gymnastics then . . . I don't know.

lavinmeg- Thanks! My little strategy is to drop a couple gymnastics hours- and if that's not possible, just coach- and go for wrestling. Don't know if it'll work, but I'm gonna try.

dunno- you never fail to make me laugh.
