Sports for a hypermobile pre-teen?

[CardboardRole]

Hi
DD is hypermobile. Not terrible so, but she is fairly unco-ordinated and not keen on sport. I would like her to find a sport that she enjoys because I think it is important for her to keep active as she enters her teenage years.
So far she has tried (and given proper goes at) swimming (too boring), karate (too confusing), tennis (just not co-ordinated enough), dance (ditto), cycling (backache) and gymnastics (core strength just not up to it).
Are there any sports that will help keep her fit (ie aerobic), that she might be competent enough at that she wants to keep going? Any ideas at all? Thank you

My son has just been allowed to join the hospital gym (referred by his physio) and he really likes this as he works at his own pace and can listen to music.

He also likes to swim.

Horse riding?

Dd3 11 who is very hypermobile loves kayaking in the summer. OT's have recommended rock climbing to help with her strength and proprioception.

She also swims really well and is just about to start the Rookie Lifeguard scheme, which hopefully will keep her interest going.

Good luck

Thanks for your replies. If DD did a sport 'at her own pace' that would be, err, stationary! It needs to be something that she has to 'do' iyswim?

Horse riding - she'd love it. Unfortunately, we are city-based, and don't have the ££ for that - the nearest place is quite a drive away and £30 a pop .

*inappropriatelyemployed' does your DS see the physio because of hypermobility?

Track running (middle or long distance) example

Yes, he has physio but it wasn't easy to get. He was seen at Gt Ormond st for a while.

Swimming is always recommended for HMS and if they are not very good swimmers, you can use floats.

As for working 'at your own pace', what I meant was that they aren't pitted against anyone else which can be very tough for children with significant problems with Hypermobility as they simply can't keep up with their peers.

Ds 9 has tried lots of sports the majority of which he didn't like for various reasons.
He has had 121 swimming lessons for 16 mths and since the summer he has had 121 golf lessons. Both of these he really enjoys.

Thank you everyone. Lots of ideas, and interesting that there are si many hypermobile children out there.
DD not keen on running - says her knees and ankles hurt after about a mile.
She isn't classified as disabled, so rda would be out, even if we could get to a stables.
Swimming is ok, just a bit boring ploughing up and down. The pool ran a lifeguard thing which she enjoyed, but then stopped and went back to boring lengths.
Can't imagine DD doing golf, and I would fear for anyone standing near while she swung the club lol!
Hmm, I wish there was an obvious answer. I know dd isn't a natural sportsperson, but something she enjoyed and was good for her must be out there!

Ds has hyper mobility, just taken up badminton as a family & he's thoroughly enjoying it. All wrist action so suits his flexibility. He can see himself improving every week so boosting confidence etc & it's fun for all.
