[quote=Anonymous]What's your goal for your child, OP? At this age, I actually think it's ideal for kid's bodies to participate in a wide variety of sports and athletic activities so you don't create overuse injuries or imbalances. As long as she stays fit and works on her coordination and skills one way or another, I would keep the pressure off and just be happy that she enjoys being active and exercising/gaining skills in a variety of different activities. As an adult, I actually cannot do the sport I focused intensely on throughout high school because of overuse injuries and joint deterioration, and I'm grateful I have a variety of other activities to fall back on.[/quote]
