[quote=Anonymous]My now-14 year old probably started rec basketball at 7 or 8. He was/is tall, but was somewhat uncoordinated and definitely not a ball handler. He wasn't aggressive at all, but he had fun and wanted to keep playing rec. Now as a freshman, he's still not inclined to put any additional training into it, but he's gotten more aggressive and confident over the years. I think 8 is way too young to give up on it! At some point too, they learn that they get out of it what they put into it. As PPs have noted with their own children, the weeks they practice more, the better they do, and I see the same with my son. Also, it's ok if basketball never rises past the rec stage. It's youth sports and it's supposed to be fun.[/quote]
