[quote=Anonymous]You have to consider the ages group. U9-u13 it is really of questionable benefit. U9-u13 is about developing individual skills and confidence. At these earlier ages the girls playing up are more injury prone. They get beat up by physical play and it will change the way they play and their confidence. They can be excluded socially which plays into confidence. U9-u12 the one year up age group girls will have on average 10-15% more mass and height, their muscle are more developed, bone are stronger, muscles(like neck muscles) are stronger, the are faster but speed of play can be slower, the same or a little faster. Usually it’s just the girls are bigger and run faster which is different vs speed of play. After u14 it matter less but you have to think about the social stuff more. U14 training is less about individual development and the girls have for the most part grown. This is where soccer iq and speed of play start to become important. [/quote]
