This can cause conflicts and an inability to play on or the other sport. By checking with coaches and schedules you can determine if this is going to be a problem. If it will be, then it may be necessary to make a choice between the two sports for what is going to be their preference.

Some team sports cost a significantly larger amount of money than others. While you want to give your kids the best you can, finances can limit you at times. Make sure you know cost to participate well in advance of try outs.
