A bat and new pair of shoes every season. Helmet and gloves can go multiple years. Not bad. Lol I'm saying this and our baseball area in the garage is overflowing with bats, pitching machines, and whatever else.

Still baseball. A day at the field is much more enjoyable than sitting in some gym. Rain or shine.

Little league will have helmets and catchers gear. Even the poor kids don't use the shit bats, if there even are any.

Given it's fall I assume op is wondering about a select team.

The kids will share bats all the time but nobody uses a team bat. They probably should get a team bat. A new Icon is $400 this season.

Serious ballet is a good sport/activity for a girl.

Generic "dance" studios that offer a combination of shitty jazz, tap and ballet are a waste of money and your child will learn nothing valuable.

A lot of studios today are competition only, and they don't do any ballet performances. The competitions all have the categories you listed (and a few more).

Horrible advice. Ballet is possibly the most mentally ill activity available to women short of literal pornography. Higher-level gymnastics and figure skating maybe but that's only when you get to pretty elite levels. There's basically no "normal" ballet

It's the most feminine activity possible and it's all women. My girls have had great mentors. One of the older girls comes back and watches my kids for a week, stays at our house. Very few people we would trust to do that. They're generally very reasonable when they leave the studio.

i was pretty good at basketball and it was probably my favorite sport growing up.

one time the guys on my football team were running shit in a pick-up basketball game and our high school's star basketball player player joined in. and he just clowned me without even trying to.

you got to realize what your wheelhouse is. and i was good at basketball and enjoyed it as a kid but not a future nba player like this guy.

Wife entered her into a tennis tournament and 1st round she played a boy who wasn't better than her, but could perfectly serve underhanded into the stupid makeshift boxes they drew with chalk

My kid had a mental breakdown and couldn't get 1 overhead serve into that box and refused to underhand

I noticed a girls softball game on adjacent field and all the girls (and dads) were having a blast, and felt sorry for my kid and myself

Softball and baseball games are 180 as parents, chill, great weather, everyone getting blasted

Track you have to wake up at 4 am

Volleyball I think is the equivalent of football for girls, it's "the" sport

Tennis for the aesthetics

Gymnastics early but for God's sake drop out by age 10

have done little league for years, its not super serious, but its still a sport and parents are into it.

softball is wild. the girls are chanting at each other (not in a good sportsman way either) and having a good time. the games are ridiculously bad but its fun to watch.

softball is like baseball -5 years in skill
