[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't worry about him being good at soccer, but I would worry about him being able to follow simple instructions. If he is told, when it's your turn to be on the field keep playing until your coach calls you out, he should be able to do that. If soccer isn't for him that is totally fine! And if he runs around the field and never touches the ball that's also fine! But ignoring directions and not following the rules might raise some concern.[/quote] I think this is exactly what worries me. Even in the absence of any marginal skill or competency, he doesn’t listen to what the coach says to do, or think twice about not participating in a helpful way to his team. [/quote] half of 5 yo boys are like that. parents of "wild" kids often skip the team sports at that age, that's why it feels like yours is one of the few wild kids not following directions. maybe try again at 7? t-ball might be more engaging.[/quote]
