Replying to Elite sports player problem
So here is my situation, I'm playing hockey since i'm like 3 years old (im 15 now and still playing), i'm in a family that LOVE hockey and everybody see me in the NHL later, I played for all the big elite team like AAA since I started. But 2 years ago I started to ski and I just loved it(Im thinking of it 24/7 about it, probablly watch all the skiing video on the internet) . I like everything about it: no stress, learning something new every day, having fun with friend, buying new clothing and gear, etc. So as I said, my familly wants me to be a pro hockey player but...I have no fun doing it anymore, it is just an extra stress and pressure for me, my coach is pissing me of this year and it seems like I can't stop a fucking puck this year(im a goaler) so it doesnt really help. I dont want to drop hockey now because my parents made a lot of sacrifices like the school which cost like 5000$ (expensive where I live)1000$ for the summer training, 5000$ of gear and if I had to drop hockey, it would be all a waste of money and all of those thing would be wasted. The thing is that I like skiing much more than hockey, this year I will ski every friday night beacause im lucky to have nothing every friday(only)(and probably next year I will ski only on christmas and spring break) and I want to study for a job in the ski indusrty, but my parents dont seems to even care about it when I talk about it. Is there anybody here that is in the same situation as me (or other sports)?
