[quote=Anonymous]It is not unusual. How is the girls team at her age group? There could be some logistic issues that a club is accommodating, or the club may lack a good girls team - or any team for the age. Until the boys hit their growth spurts at 12-14 the good girls can play even up with the guys. Often the girls are even bigger/faster. My daughter played on good girls teams at that age, and at u11 the team played in the boys side of the urban league they were in. They were in the top division and I recall they finished below 500 but were competitive in the games. They played against girls teams in tournaments though. The very best girls - who are also bigger and fast - can play with the better guys longer, but eventually muscle bulk and height get too prevalent to overcome, and the reality is that those girls end up playing on the top girls teams.
