[quote=Anonymous]My son started in K in BCC baseball league - he was put on a team with first graders and by the second season they had abandoned the T for a pitching machine.... which basically sucked any of the fun out of it for him and we have now abandoned baseball, to my regret. My take is that it is a very tricky game for young kids, much more so than soccer or even basketball. The rules are complicated and the hand-eye coordination is way more than even the best, older kids on my son's team could manage. My son was lucky in that the team he was on had a wonderful coach, but I'm not surprised that fewer kids play baseball today than ever before. Bottom line: find your son a team with a T and keep him in that mode as long as possible so he can learn the skills and rules and develop a love for the game.[/quote]
