[quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm starting to feel like we're wasting our time and money on DC's sport, because no matter how fast and technically competent they are, slow processing speed plus inattentiveness seem like insurmountable obstacles in team sports. DC is already medicated and playing at a high level but puts in a ton of extra time with private skills lessons to keep up. Does anyone have a success story in a sport like soccer, hockey, lacrosse or basketball? For example, an athletic kid who struggled with inattentive ADHD but still managed to play a team sport in college? Would a sports psychologist with experience in this area help?[/quote] Whose interest is this sport? It sounds like my son is younger (he is 14), but he has combined type ADHD, and is fairly successful in travel soccer - because he's highly interested in it. If he weren't, he would definitely not be able to be successful.[/quote]
