[quote=Anonymous]What matters more is when he will enter puberty. Ask his dad went through puberty. There are kids that end up 5'7" BUT if they go through puberty at ages 11-12 and are 5'6" as a 12 year old or at least 5'7" by freshman year of high school then no problem any sport. The issue is when you have short son AND they go through puberty late. It is really hard to watch. My oldest son is incredibly athletic but short AND went through puberty late. He entered high school 5'2". Beside cross-country and swim he couldn't keep up because when you weigh 100 pound and are that short you can't really play other high school sports. Coaches are also REALLY biased against short boys. The taller kid will get tapped way before any short boy. [/quote]
