But we are concerned that issues, such as early sports specialization, poor sports manship and over-invested parents seeking sports schol arships, are threatening to undermine the positive experience of youth sports.” In the area of parental behavior and involvement, the Report Card shows a mark of‘D.’ Bator season nears Special to the HHJ SOCIAL CIRCLE - Alligators in Georgia cur rently have a population of more than 200,000, thanks to sound wildlife management. Last fall, 500 permitted hunters harvested 154 alliga tors. The popularity of this hunt has increased since it was introduced in 2003, and in response the number of quota permits and areas in which to hunt have grown. This year, hunters will again have a chance at one of 500 permits and will be allowed to choose a hunt location from a larger choice of areas. The season is Sept. 9-Oct. 1 but the deadline to submit an application is July 31. Selected hunters will be notified in early August and will have the opportunity to attend one of several volun tary training sessions.

For example, she said a 7-year-old player can be riding home and be listening to his parents open ly bad-mouthing the coach or the officials. “Because sports participa tion can have such a positive impact on young people, it’s extremely important that parents and coaches keep the games in perspective and the interests of the par ticipants at the very top of f — 'awr\ l jPt" - I At.
