[quote=Anonymous]We think it's valuable for several reasons. It's good to have physical activity every day, and soccer takes care of that two days a week. It's a nice way for kids to get to know their classmates and for you to get to know the parents, outside of school. And if you never let your child try things, how will they know what they like to do? It doesn't have to be a team, necessarily - it can be an instructional class. My goal with my child was to introduce her to enough sports and activities that she would be comfortable in gym class and pickup games for the rest of her life. My parents didn't push me toward that stuff when I was a kid, and it was intimidating as a teen and adult to try to navigate situations like company picnics with pickup softball and soccer and volleyball games. I want her to be more at ease than I was. [/quote]
