Sooner or later, in families with children is becoming a topical issue, send their children to some sports section. Try to figure out how to choose and do not harm the baby.
1. Focus on the raw data of the child. If the best entertainment for him - to drive the ball in the yard or throw in the ring, it is obvious that this is a potential football or basketball. If a child is afraid of water like the plague - that learning to swim is better to postpone and not tug at the power pool.
2. The reverse side of the previous council: if you a hyperactive child or a fighter - it is not a straight path in athletics and aikido. In sports important focus, the ability to listen to the coach, to carry out their tasks and not just haphazardly run or hit other children. About hyperactivity is best to consult with a psychologist on personal consultation, and with a child to engage in general physical activity. For example, a lot of walking and active.
3. Listen to the child's opinion. Perhaps he himself has repeatedly said, what sports would like to do, just his interests do not coincide with yours?
4. Do not be afraid of injuries and diseases of professional athletes. You just choose the sports section, and do not decide his fate. Until professional sports in the child will be the years of training, and it may well change the section or not to build a career in the sport. So if a son or daughter ask to write them on the box - no need to imagine that they would go to the terrible bruises, to broken noses and a concussion.
5. Do not choose the sports section for the child, which is directly contrary to his nature. If it is obvious introvert, introverted, shy, do not send him back to where his successes and failures to observe a group of children. The principle of "go to karate - to learn to be a man" does not work. Carried away by child morning jogging and cycling on weekends, it's more will do him good.6. By selecting section, pay attention to the coach, Which will deal with the child. Read reviews of it, follow the advice of those who have already found their children a great mentor in the direction you want the sport.
7. Think in advance what financial investments It may require one or the other section. In addition to direct training and special clothing may require a significant amount for the purchase of equipment, trips to the competitions for individual workouts.
And do not forget to consult your pediatrician. For some sports clubs there are contraindications.
