🌴 Free days

Days with nothing on the calendar — breathing room.

5 free days this summer
2 days (Jul 25–Jul 26) longest stretch
Next open days:
none — every remaining day has something!
🛡️ Protect the 2 days (Jul 25–Jul 26) stretch — it's the family's longest breather. Guidelines recommend at least 2 days off a week from training; try not to book into it.

💪 Load & recovery

Weekly activity hours per kid vs. their age (the youth-load ceiling). Tight days = an early morning and a late night for the same kid.

🥍 Reid (13)14 h/wk⚠️ 4 tight days
🥍 Evelyn (13)6 h/wk⚠️ 4 tight days
⚾ David (11)6 h/wk⚠️ 1 tight day
🎭 Charlie (9)2 h/wk

The red cap marks each kid's age (the weekly-hours ceiling). You're multi-sport, which spreads load across muscle groups and lowers overuse-injury risk vs. single-sport specialization.
