[quote=Anonymous]At 6, the only point is for them to have fun socially and get a little physical activity.  Make sure you are signing up for whatever the neighborhood kids are doing. This SHOULD be a social activity.

You have plenty of time for the intense activities later.  At 6, had zero interest in any team sports and didn’t show any interest until about 5th or 6th grade.  We kept signing him up for different activities to expose him to different things, whatever friends were doing and whatever he wanted to try.  He was all in and training year round by middle school, lifting, private sessions and everything.  Played in HS and dropped it all by 11th grade for driving and a PT job.

The other kid had more of an interest in rec but didn’t get super serious and competitive until middle school.  Same thing, we signed up for whatever rec sports friends were doing for social reasons.  Training ramped up when she wanted to in middle school and she’s also playing in HS for the moment but driving and 11th grade haven’t hit so we will see what happens.
