If kids sports is the topic then there are a lot of things going on that are worse than excessive praise. Preteen sports are about learning the game, getting physical activity, growing a sense of achievement, exposing kids to teamwork, etc. The act of competition is way down the list of important things.

They can have their hyper-competitive league where only the good kids play when they get older. When they are young there are more important lessons to learn.
