[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a player who has been playing up 2 age groups for years, starts every match and is often one of the best on the field every game. Was competing for minutes and performing well for a U16 team when he was 12. Made varsity and started as a freshman. Whoever said there’s no reason for players to play up is asinine, and that kind of thinking holds back truly talented players who are actually on a higher level than their peers. If you’re good enough, you’re old enough.[/quote] Not having seen in, who knows? I will say playing up seems to make more sense when I have it seen it watching my son come up through travel. On the girl's side, it seems a lot more political and less about talent. Girl soccer parents are nutty, especially if they haven't experienced the boys' side of things. [/quote]
