He loved practice, hanging out with the team and being in the dugout. He finished the season but never hit a ball or caught a ball or made a play. He just wasn't interested.
He's in gymnastics now at almost 8 and is starting track in a few weeks.
Your post was so funny! I think I love your DS.
I just wanted to comment on track and field... it's great for taking anyone of any ability at a starting point and everyone can have measureable improvement. If he cares at all about stats, he could track his progress in terms of effort + time.
It can also be a social sport with a real mix of different personalities.
Good luck to him - hope he likes it.
