[quote=Anonymous]Baseball, gymnastics, certain track and field events (the sprints and 2-mile), cross-country running, and diving. The shorter height makes it easier to rotate in diving and gymnastics-- imagine him somersaulting in the air with straight legs and you'll see how having less mass to spin is better. Height is not essential in hockey if he's going to have a heavier build-- medium height but stocky guys are fine. Probably wouldn't reach the top levels of the sport but that's probably for the best, no? He could also be a lightweight rower. If he turns out really short and slender he could cox. Obviously at this age you'd want to focus on swimming lessons and being willing to ride in any boat at all :-)[/quote]
