Are your kids on sports teams?

what age do most children's sports teams start? I want to enroll my son in a football or baseball team because he's really active and I want him to able to play sports and make friends. How much does it usually cost to get on a normal little league team?

I'm not a parent, i'm a 16 year old girl and my siblings do sports and so do i. idk wat age most children's sports teams start but i think around kindergarted. My siblings do a variety of sports depending on their interests. Around here it doesn't cost anything to be on a sports team.

The cost will depend on your area and their age. My 7 year old son plays baseball and this fall will be starting football. For baseball, the fees were $60 for the season and football is $170. My 10 year old daughter is into gymnastics and cheerleading. gymnastics is $60/month and cheerleading is $120.

All the leagues that my kids have played in have offered scholarships for kids.

couldn't tell you cost, that changes with location. There are usually programs for kids in first grade and up.

Well, I have seen kids as young as 3 on soccer teams and 5 for most everything else.

My 11 year old daughter is a gymnast.

My 4 year old son is in toddler baseball.

i'd enroll my kids in little league or peewee around kindergarten. keep the active so they don't get chunky and they'll have a better chance at getting scholarships.

i'm pretty sure it isn't that expensive. probably about $250 or $300 for the season and the uniform included.
