[quote=Blutarski]I think playing up is fairly uncommon because it is rare that exceptional players warrant it and it makes sense for their development. There are lots of factors that should go into whether playing up a year makes sense including the nature of their advanced skill, physical stature, the performance levels of both age groups in that particular position, the coaching environment etc. Playing up typically occurs as a result of players being more physically mature than their peers. Usually this is a temporary thing, and the gap closes by U16 (for girls anyway) at which point the player may return to his/her age group. In any event, I have never seen a club that wouldn't at least consider it if it makes sense. My point is there is alot involved in that decision that may or may not be evident. Conversation is probably required with the club.[/quote]
