[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is exactly what I’ve seen. Lots of recruiting (to teams) and opportunities to play/continue based on body size (usually tall/large, but in some sports the reverse). And it starts very early (and what age depends on the sport). [b]Starts in middle school[/b] or so for many of the traditional team sports (basketball, baseball etc). It is unfortunate because kids grow at such different rates (especially boys). [/quote] Yes, recruiting starts around middle school age or earlier for basketball. My 9 year old DS :roll: was recruited to another AAU team (coach persistent until we showed up at a practice)... good timing since he was not happy with his former team. DC and PG county teams sometimes poach players. I am told some AAU coaches "scout" at FCYBL playoff games. Crazy, even though we benefited from the recruit.[/quote]
