Crosby has a great tip for young hockey players

Nowadays, everything seems to get more and more specialized. Sports isn't an exception, with deeper analysis every year. In youth sports, a lot of activities get less and less subscriptions because kids focus on one sport earlier in their development.

Well, superstar center Sidney Crosby has a message for those kids.

"It is important to play a lot of different sports. It’s nice to change it up", said Crosby at a press conference at his own hockey school in his hometown of Cole Harbour according to Metronews.

Many parents who try to teach this value to their kids will thank Crosby for this declaration, coming from one of the game's best player, surely that it adds a lot of weight to an argument.

Crosby does have a point. Last October, a research done with NFL players showed that most of them were multi sports athletes, sometimes playing up to three different sports, in high school.
