Looking for Feedback from Parents of Gifted Athletes (1 Viewer)

Not to sound like a creepy dude from the internet but any video of his game? I'm curious to see what an elite 11 year old player looks like.

Im interested in this too.

If I was a parent of an elite 11 year old, I would have youtube videos of him somewhere.

Glad you posted an update. You should continue to do so in the next few years. It will be interesting to read how this progresses.

My brother and sister-in-law are getting ready to have this 'problem' with my nephew. He's nine and he wrestles like he's been doing it for ten years.  He's like a sponge, you show him a move and he perfects it by the next practice. Never seen a kid like him and I've wrestled/coached for 25+ years.

OP hasn't posted in 2 years, I'm guessing a real update is unlikely.  I'll give an update as to what I imagine has happened.

"The boy still enjoys basketball very much, but other interests have begun to draw his attention too (friends, video games, girls).  He's still a very good player and is usually the best on his team, but other kids have begun to catch up to him and he doesn't find the game quite as easy as he once did.  He's also begun to play against kids much taller and athletic than him.  If these kids are skilled they give him trouble.  He's still a great kid."

That was a fun read.  Would love to see an update too.
