[quote=Anonymous]My U12 kid has had the chance to play with and against U13s (and even older) in trainings and competition lately. I am honestly not seeing age as some huge advantage in and of itself, at least within a year or two. A mid-level older kid does not have all that much success against a top team younger kid. The technical skills and understanding of spacing and decision making don't seem to be there. Size and speed can only help so much. Now if it's a top team of older kids vs. top team of younger kids, then yes the difference is clear. Probably because the top team kids have had the better coaching and more committed teammates all along. But I think all these people with mid-level Q4 players thinking their kid will automatically move up to a top team once the age group change kicks in may be in for a rude awakening. [/quote]
