[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6’0” by the time they enter 9th grade is on tje taller side so they would have a better chance of standing out. [/quote] For the average every day person, 6'0 isn't a bad height. And there are shorter players(under six feet) who play on high school basketball teams. But honestly the average height is closer to 6'4 to 6'5. Where by around 6th or 7th grade you'll start seeing 6'0 players. Some of those players are constantly asked about their age/grade and they insist they're at grade level and the age for that grade level. I see some aau teams that appear to select on height where all of their players are on the taller side. And have seen tryouts where the coach isn't even paying attention to what's going on until the end where they line everybody up by height. I don't agree with it and don't think you need to be tall to play basketball. But just saying six feet isn't considered tall for youth basketball.[/quote]
