[quote=Anonymous]My son has never been athletic--no interest or inclination. (He's fit and healthy but more of a tree-climber than a sports kid.) We signed him up for various organized sports when he was younger (honestly, without his buy-in) and nothing took. Now, suddenly, he is OBSESSED with baseball. He wants to play it every morning and evening in our tiny backyard. He plays daily at recess (though not with the kids who play in leagues). I'd love for him to get regular playing time with someone other than his parents, and I know he'd like to have a better grasp of the fundamentals. But it feels like every other 9-year-old boy has been playing for years. I don't want him to sign up for a team, only to lose his enthusiasm when everyone is waaay better than he is. So, is there something like remedial baseball for elementary kids? Or should I just leave him alone and let him keep playing when he can?[/quote]
