[quote=Anonymous]My son started late to learn basketball rules & play basketball at age 9 last winter. Some players that played for years did not want him at all because he was not good. He was the only new player. A year forward now at age 10 this winter, he has made a ton of improvement given he does not even practice at all. I would say that his skills catch up a lot, but he still falls on the lower end of average level in terms of skills for current team. I also notice a few less skilled players from last season quit to play basketball this winter season. Is that common? These are all recreational teams. He was a bit upset about it on their first practice yesterday with his performance, and he thought he could do a lot better. He is the only minority on his team, and he is still not used to all other players are stronger, skilled and play faster than him. The coach was really impressed with his improvement. After this winter season, I want to sign him up with some group basketball lessons or summer camps to improve skills. A few coaches have comented that he is a natural shooter, so I really do not want him to quit playing one day like others. I don't know what skills he is lacking, but I know that he lacks lower body and leg strength due to low muscle tones. Any recommendations for basketball camps and lessons in the area of Rockville, gaithersburg or germantown? [/quote]
