[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m seeing that now even with age 9. Coaches are prioritizing huge kids. Sometimes the parents are 5’2/5’6. They are just heavier or early bloomers. Jokes on them I guess. [/quote] +1 It starts earlier and earlier. Baffling. My oldest DS was tallish as a child but then plateaued in middle school and was a very late bloomer- 5’3” 90lbs-ish? in 8th grade. Currently a junior & 6’ 1” but quit team sports 2yrs ago. A lot of the “big” early bloomers were fully grown in 8th grade and haven’t grown since- my DS is much larger than some of them now. But they get allll of the reps/playing time/spots on the top teams for years. Not picking on early bloomers either. At all! I just wish that coaches would recognize the different growth patterns & show some patience and eye for development. Instead it tends to be “win win win. Today!” for so many. [/quote] Um shouldnr that be the strategy?[/quote]
