[quote=Anonymous]Keep signing him up for activities and supplement with private lessons. DC has a similar profile to your child and has been successful with ice hockey. We've done a significant amount of private skating and skills lessons over the years. He makes good teams because he's strong, fast, athletic, and skilled, but he struggles with all the other stuff, like spatial awareness, game IQ, and being "coachable" (in a team setting). It doesn't have to be hockey, but whatever team sport you choose, I highly recommend supplementing with privates. Kids like ours struggle to learn in group settings and they struggle with team concepts. Our approach has been to be the fastest and most skilled player on the team to compensate for weaknesses that are just plain hard for them to overcome. [/quote]
