[quote=Anonymous]I hope not, my 11 yr old DD wants to play soccer this spring also so she's going to do a rec team. She played when she was 4-6 and didn't like the chaos at that age so switched to swimming and tennis, but lately has come back around to wanting to do a team sport (also trying field hockey). She's doing a winter skills clinic to learn some of the basics, just as a confidence booster. Might be something to look for around your area? My backup plan was to hire a high schooler for a few one-on-one training sessions before practices started. Anything to just get a little bit further down the learning curve. She's tall and athletic so I think she'll catch up eventually (to at least a solid rec-level player, I mean) but I have no doubt the first couple of seasons will be a little rough until she gets some basic technical skills down. We'll try to find some good camps for her this summer too.[/quote]
