[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was going to say softball, which worked for my very unathletic girl (pitching is the thing that has really stuck, because you can be good just by putting in a ton of repetition). If that didn't work, how about ice skating? Or if she's willing to get strong enough, what about rock climbing? Both are fairly technical, which for my unathletic girl is what worked. Also having friends on the team or in the activity can be huge.[/quote] Softball is good because it is structured, not a chaotic scrum around the ball like other team sports at that age.[/quote] OP already said that they tried softball and it didn't stick. Rock climbing, Girls Who Run, Golf, Yoga, Pickleball are all good options. I've seen some small gyms offering kids classes focused on balance, coordination, etc. it might something worth looking into.[/quote]
