Is it good for kids to play sports competitively at young ages? So many people believe that kids don't need to keep score and everyone should play, but when I was younger I wanted to win. I think that by playing to win you are teaching them lessons that they can learn in life. What do you think?

I believe that it is important for the kids to play competitively at a young age. Like you said, it is important for them to learn what it is like to win and lose. They also need to learn that everything doesnt always go their way. Things happen, people arent perfect, and things change that might change a game. Kids need to learn to adapt to these for things to come in their future.
