[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are 6 year olds on my kid’s U8 team. They actually describe it as 2013+.  They flight the players at practice and for games the younger kids do SAM U7 while the 2013s and stronger 2014s do EDP Futures.[/quote]

+1 our club has lots of 6 year olds playing u8, especially on the boys side.

OP this wont last forever and if you dont keep her playing a year up, her teammates will definitely catch up, unless you keep her in rec. These kids are common in pretravel. Bsc has an entire juniors program of 4 and 5 year olds getting technical training with real coaches. These kids enter U8 very prepared. She can be the star of rec or a top travel depending on your goal.

OP here. Thanks for all the responses. She's actually a 2015, still 5, so a bit more difficult to figure out being two years out of U8. I understand all of the comments regarding other kids catching up as we've seen it with her sibling's teams, so we'd like for her to continue developing while having fun.

Her siblings have also played up a year at U8 and done pre-travel programs. I'm just not sure what to do with her at her U7 age next fall. We definitely plan on Travel for her when the time comes unless she doesn't want it.[/quote]
