[quote=Anonymous]How tall are you and her father? Is she likely to stay tall or is it possible she’s just going be tall for her age when she’s younger and others will catch up? I was off the charts for height and weight when I was very young, then leaned out and was just tall and skinny. I too was not aggressive and didn’t care for team sports. I loved being in the pool and people would tell my mom to put me on swim team. I was too nervous to try it until I was 8 (did lessons before then) but it ended up being the right fit… ended up with a D1 scholarship. I was “quietly competitive” so racing was better for me than going after a ball on a field. I think 6 is still young to really know anything yet, but keep up with swim lessons and try swim team in a year or two. Height and size are definitely an advantage if technique is decent. Big hands and feet are an advantage too… a lot of tall kids have that going for them. [/quote]
