[quote=Anonymous]In MoCo in the 3rd/4th grade they seem to take just about everyone especially girls, there just aren't that many teams. I suspect as they get older there are skills gap issues. We have kids that are playing down on our team, until they can get enough skills to play at their appropriate age group. Kind of annoying as the teams are all over the map in terms of ages. Kids playing up kids playing down, you end up with tall 3rd grades playing average 5th graders, enrolling in tournaments where some of the kids might even be sixth graders. I can see how as the teams mature the coaches would be less likely to take on additional kids that haven't developed -And- don't know their systems. Having said that, there is usually some attrition, so the teams will take on additional kids over time. I have also noticed even in the 4th grade tournaments there are recently formed teams, though they get trounced and looked more like 3rd grade teams in organization.[/quote]
