[quote=Anonymous]Playing up has advantages until they hit that age when the opponents they are playing up for are going against teams that are MUCH bigger. It'll happen... about the U13/14 (depends for girls vs boys), the opposing team is stout. All of a sudden your "speed and quick feet" hold very little weight against a defender who hip bumps you and you crumble. Also, I saw from other girls playing up is that when they eventually play with their proper aged team, they've lost a lot of cohesion and comradery the other players have who've been together those 2-3 years while you were playing up. It sounds like a great idea, but rarely does it work out. Like other say, if you're playing full time and enjoying it, there isn't harm... but the consequences could comes quick and it's hard to just leave one team for another.[/quote]
