[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At this age, it's fine to try a new sport every season if the kid wants to. An athletic kid will have no problem picking up a new sport in middle school and being competitive within a year or two. Don't worry about "choosing" yet, just let the kid explore and eventually they'll decide what fits best. The goal now is to keep them active and learn how to play on a team - the specific sport is less important. [/quote] I had a parent at a recent rec game come up to me and tell me her middle schooler couldn't play X sport because all the other kids had started in kindergarten and he was shut out. I will say we do not live in a transient area at all and I fully expect the soccer kids in Kindergarten will be the same soccer kids in middle school if they choose to be.[/quote]
