[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 12381, member: 1498"] FWIW, I don't think team sports are appropriate until kids are around 8 or so at the youngest. I think kids do so much better and have more fun going to the playground and having a shoot around, playing catch or kicking a ball with Mom or Dad or Big Sib, as long as it stays light and fun. I think there is way too much pressure in our society for kids to join teams even before their motor skill are developed enough to acquire the skills to play the sport. They should really learn the skills before they join a team, not join a team to learn the skills. [/QUOTE]
