How can you tell if a kid really loves a sport. Does he or she spends hours and hours out playing on the blacktop, or field playing with his friends. Did he say mom and dad I want to be a pro athlete? Even if your kid does and says all these things they don’t really amount to nothing. These days parents are good to place there child or children into a organized athletic program. Most of the time to get them off the computer. Then what do you know they start to make athletic friends. Friends are very encouraging and so are parents. Some kids start participating in a sport just because they can’t get there dads attention when a game is on. Then comes the dreaded question, son you want to play football? Alright baby girl I’ll sign you up to play basketball. How many kids grow up watching there parents play a sport? I would say not many, I don’t think your kid really wants to play a sport if you ask him or her do you want to play. But if they do parents can drive them right out of the game. Here are some key factors to know if your kid really loves the game.
1). When it’s time for practice who brings it up you or them.
even if a kid plays hours and hours on or in the driveway shooting baskets doesn’t really means he loves the game. When it’s time to practice this kid is in your ear telling his parents it’s time for practice. But practice isn’t for another hour, yeah we’ll I’m ready to go, I want to be there first. If that’s the case I think your kid really loves the game.
2) Shooting baskets, throwing a football or Kicking a soccer ball into a net is one thing, but leaving the house going to the nearest playground to fine someone else to school or play against is a kid who is willing to learn or give out free lessons in the game. If this is your kid they really love the game.
