first dont ever think your size can make you not as good as everybody else ever. you do what your heart tells you and go for it.

In baseball and softball a lot of times short people do great! It is a challenge for the pitcher to get a strike with such a small strike zone.

Alyssa,
Don't let your current lack of height discourage you from playing any sport. Yes, it's true that at the collegiate and pro levels superior height is often an advantage, but in youth sports taller girls are often less coordinated and slower. Smaller girls are usually quicker and more agile. If you want to play basketball, work on your ball handling and outside shooting skills. For volleyball, work on your serving and defensive skills. Pick any sport and don't let your size be a deterrent. -
gymnastics is good for short people. :)

gymnastics and ice skating are good for us shorties....anything that takes a lot of balance since our center of gravity is lower. Martial Arts are good for short people too because it takes balance and it's good for handling bullies!
