[quote=Anonymous]My kid was the worst on his basketball team from 2nd through 4th grade, but insisted on playing. We didn’t get it, and honestly it was kinda hard to watch. But - nobody was mean to him, and he liked his teammates, so it was fun for him. In 4th grade, his rec coach(who was a former high school coach and trainer coaching his own kids on the rec team) somehow really connected with my kid and invited him to workouts with his (coach’s) kids. A few weekend workouts with that dad were transformational for DS’s game, and I think for his self image and confidence. By high school he was playing on very good AAU and HS teams. Along the way, the coaches and trainers he met became mentors and people he was very close to. As long as the kid drives it, getting a trainer can be great. [/quote]
