The first thing that you should do is to sit with your child and to determine if any sports may interest them more than others. Perhaps your child is not interested in sports at all, but they may be interested in the activities that go along with the sports, provided they are guided in the right direction. You can then go about trying to match up the interests of the child with any sports activities that may be available at the school that they are attending. There may also be other sports arrangements that are available for children through local organizations as well. You can generally find a listing of these organizations through your local Chamber of Commerce, who would be able to further advise you on these matters.
It is important for you to support your child in these activities, and to make sure that you are present at the games, as well as taking part in any of the adult activities that may be taking place. Many sports have various activities that would give you this opportunity, such as bake sales, fund drives and perhaps even road trips. The more active you are in their interests, the more that they will see that you are supporting them and that you are there for them when needed. This will help to boost their confidence in themselves and will also help to weave them into the activity even further, which will give them even more direction.
