[quote=Anonymous][quote=ThatSmileyFaceGuy]Start by setting small goals. Taking a second off his time for instance. Learning that flip turn. Reward reaching those goals. But the important thing is DON'T LET HIM QUIT. My kids are allowed to try any sport they want but they know that they have to commit to 2 years. Since you can't expect anyone to get even halfway decent at something in the first year. [/quote] Thanks for the suggestions. I agree with your point of no one getting decent in the first year. My initial thought was to continue for at least three years and decide if he wants to quit after that. That's why it is hard for me to see him demoralized in his very first year. I like your idea of setting small goals that might not be timing related. Any other thoughts on how to keep him motivated?[/quote]
