[quote=Anonymous]Many kids stop growing by 8th/9th, particularly the early growers (not all of course, but MANY). Certain ethnic groups do not grow tall and peter out by HS. Stars of youth soccer are often not there any more by 16/17/18. A lot has to do with physical growth catching up with very skilled, smart smaller players. And, a lot of it has to do with young stars being passed on top team from year to year without ever having to work for it. That certainly does not develop grit or determination.[/quote]
