[quote=Anonymous]If recruiting is the main consideration, I think there are at least a couple of things to consider. One is that ideally you want her to be one of the stronger performers on the team. Many times, players playing up are doing so because they matured earlier. Others are just gifted, and work hard at their game. If the former, stepping back may be in her future. I would solicit the opinion of the coach to see which will be best for her. Secondly, consider that if she continues to play up, recruiting may be harder since she will be a year younger than everyone. U17 is the age group where the largest numbers of players commit. If she continues to play up, at U17 she'll be playing in the U18/19 age group with mostly committed players. Typically U18/19 teams go to fewer showcases, and in some cases, are a bit less motivated. If she is lucky (and good) enough to commit earlier, this won't be a factor.[/quote]
