Happy Monday DFPers!
I hope you all are enjoying the holidays. We've had some pretty mild weather here in Ohio and have gotten some good hitting work done in the garage. One of the topics that we've talked about as a family is the fact that DD will be able to participate in a school sport next fall for the first time since she will be entering 7th grade. Since the fall ball commitment is fairly minimal here, I think it would be a good idea for her to do something. The question is what.
She's expressed some interest in both golf and cross country. Actually, she'd like to play football but that's a non-starter in our house. There would be obvious conditioning benefits to cross country, but I really question how much she would enjoy it. Golf, on the other hand, is something that I think she could enjoy for the rest of her life. I'm a bit worried, however, that swinging a golf club could affect her softball swing.
I'd love to hear any input from those of you who have been through this before. Thanks!
