This is a discussion of what sport a child should choose. Without considering possibilities, children often want to play the sports their friends play. Parents often encourage children to participate in the sport that the parent played as a child. This document strives to help parents and children make an informal decision about sports. Some of the considerations include team vs. individual, contact level, money, time, and other considerations by sport such as quickness and agility over size.
