[quote=Anonymous]DS age 9 loves sports - basketball, baseball, flag football, soccer, etc. He is a competent athelete but not a natural one. His big problem, however, is that he gets so anxious when the ball is passed to him or it is his opportunity to make a play, that he flubs it and/or literally shies away from the ball/opponent. He does fine and even well at times at practice, but he's like a deer caught in the headlights during actual game time. I know many young kids get nervous during games, but this is a step beyond "typical" nerves and he can't seem to get past it. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I help him relax during the moment of play? Thank you![/quote]
