When we were kids my bro played footy & us girls played netball. Where we lived it was all done on the same days & times. Training on Thursday & games on Saturday. Being the same team, we all played at the same towns when away too.
I did swimming from about 10, but I walked to the pool & back. Good thing about a small town I guess, everything is right there.
We are about to have our fourth & I haven't thought about that stuff TBH. I plan for the kids to do little A's & nippers. Both the girls will be starting this year. DD1 has done LA's before.
I don't know much about netball/footy etc, but we'll worry about that when we come to it.
Our biggest concern is getting another car. We could just get a seat for the back, but this is actually an excuse to upgrade & we are happy about that.
When this one gets to school I will be returning to work of some sort, if not before, so there will be more income, so I guess as their appetites get bigger there will be more $$ to go around.
We already get most of the kids clothes from op shops anyway, so that doesn't bother us. Birthdays & christmasses are the only times they get new stuff.
TBH, my main worry about them being older is space. I feel like teens need more space. (Or I will when I have teens & don't want to deal with them!!) I only hope that by the time we get there we'll have been able to buy/build our own home with the kids rooms further away from ours, but 3 stories up so they can't sneak out! lol
