Fifi is an incredible athlete, I just hope she doesn't burn out. I loved hearing she enjoys spending time with her friends when she plays.

[aristired]

I hope she truly loves sports and continues to do so. She’s such a gifted and hardworking kid. Make sure to stay safe and stay happy!

Every video on social media is this kid can go pro. Let them grow up first.

[irethacallender]

She is amazingly driven. I do not like the title "12- year old freak". There is nothing freaky about her. You Rock Ms. Fifi, continue being you.

i know people think this is amazing, but. all i can think about is how her parents have forced her to do three tiring activities her entire life. even if she likes these sports, at the level she's at at such a young age, she clearly hasn't had any time to do anything else but train which is going to take effect on her growing young body and mind.

"Freak" Was there not a better word you could use?
Super, powerful, unbelievable, amazing. ....

[oliviacademartori]

Wow how amazing!
I’m just like her, have been playing soccer since 4 yrs old and play every sport you can imagine!
It would be a dream of mine to be in one of these videos!

One name: Todd Marinovich. He was raised from birth to be the ultimate athlete... and he actually made it to the NFL... But his jacked up childhood (that never allowed him to be a kid) made it all come crashing down. Also, children who have too much physical stress (mileage) put on their bodies as they are developing are much more prone to injuries later (see: Lonzo Ball). These parents may mean well, but they're probably making a mistake. But at least NIL makes it possible for her to make substantial money in college if she excels and gains a following in a particular sport in her late teens/early 20's if her body is subject to breakdown early. I truly wish her the best.

That the series is called "no days off" is both very apt, and a bit sad, in that kids SHOULD have "days off", to just be kids- unstructured time.

The cartwheel! 😂❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥Go babygirl! Have Fun!!

[BaileyCroffordMusic]

This is lowkey tragic. Her family’s belief is that they won’t be happy unless they’re good at what they’re doing. Performance based mindsets like that literally kill kids when they fail…and they WILL fail. It’s how you grow. Of all the things you could pray for your kid…let her be fast? Sheesh.

Some kids genuinely enjoy competition and hard work. And keep in mind these sports usually happen in different seasons. Some parents force and some support. These parents seem supportive

[Adventureswithnad-tcyp]

I hope she’s truly happy. I know that can be a lot of pressure

[Cardits]

Ooo I remember her from ODP. she’s absolutely a beast she can score almost anywhere

[DaigoOohashi]

Finch at 4ra is a masterstroke. Cricket fans like us can relate so much more!

[IidaKarttiala]

Got to admit, Finch's involvement in 4RA made me a regular. Can't miss out on his match insights!

[JettWoolner]

Finch brings great energy to 4ra events, really enjoying it.

[superchiunghin]

Wow this is amazing Fifi! Keep working hard🎉💪

[tracy]

she's a champion from the day she was born!!! Her parents should be super proud of her

[ChevalierL]

Trusting my bets more at 4RBT now that Finch is in the squad. Feels like batting with a safety net!
