It is important to check out what is typical in your community re the opportunities to engage in the sport even if the child isn’t an excellent athlete. My daughters could do gymnastics and horseback riding here despite not being “the best.” Other places that wouldn’t be true.
On another note, you never know when things will change. Heard today on the radio that a college in Nebraska (University of Nebraska Omaha, I think) decided to drop two sports, starting next year. The wrestlers were told that their sport is being dropped, right after they won the national championship.
