[quote=Anonymous]I'd say do highly technical lessons at a young age so the kid can learn/repeat them. Get a solid foundation of fundamentals. Avoid having to re-learn or undo poor mechanics at 12 or 13 years old that have been practiced all the time. But weekly or biweekly lessons is almost certainly not necessary. I know parent led travel teams get knocked on here all the time, but paid Coaches w/ associated facilities are always offering more lessons, weight training, etc. They make their money on the come-back. Which, hey, I get -- they gotta earn a living too. Competing and failing in sports (in public for spectators to see) is a great life skill. I found it more valuable than my fancy pants undergrad or my JD.[/quote]
