My friend is a great volleyball player in the high school and she probably accept an offer in an other town which is far from her family and her friends. She was invited to join a better volleyball team... She will train with them and, of course, she will play with them. I know this is a cool opportunity for her but she said she didn't want to continue this sport after the school. Few of her friends think this isn't a good idea because we love her and we don't want to let her go.
Well...what do you think, it is a good decision to go there?
Or would you leave your family and your friends behind because of a sport you won't continue later?
Sorry about my grammar mistakes. I am not good at English...

When you love someone you want what is best for HER-not what is best for YOU.
Yes, she should move to another town, take advantage of her opportunities. It will widen her horizons, introduce her to new people and places, and show her what she is capable of. And her old friends will be proud of her, and she can keep in touch with all ofyou.
What if she was going to join the AirForce-she have to leave town and travel, do something difficult and scarey- and succeed. She would be CHANGED by her experiences for sure, but she would still love her home and friends. And she would only be in the Air Force a short time, as well.
Love your friend enough to let her spread her wings. Encourage her to fly and then come home to rest.

This is all part of growing up; learning to let people have their own lives. You will also find a time when you need to move on and grow. I am not sure, by the way, how this works...that is, why playing for a different team means the total end of the relationship unless her family is moving her to this other town. If that is the case, it sound like she is very serious about volleyball and might use it for a scholarship.

If she plans on playing at college or pro after high school this would be a great opportunity. If not, I dont know why she would want to leave, unless maybe there is another problem(maybe at home) that she needs to get away from for awhile.

i think if she wants to continue the sport then go but if not then stay at home with friends and family and pursue a new dream

you sound selfish for wanting her to stay instead of letting her pursue her own wants.
