[quote=Anonymous]"Playing up" can be a benefit to a player who is exposed to a higher level, faster play likely more skilled players etc. I think my only caution is we saw there can be a huge difference in size of players during these years - a small player is going to have to learn how to match up against bigger, stronger, faster players and the game becomes much more physical. We were advised by several coaches that playing up could help with our player's development - and we did notice that but they really needed to be fast, have better endurance and push themselves with their ball handling. I think each age group can only have a few players that are "playing up" on their roster, and I don't think I would advise a 2 year play up (which I believe is the max you can play up. [/quote]
