[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not nonsense at all. My DD is the small and super technical player who is really not a great athlete. She has not learned to use her body in that way… but is amazing when she is 1:1 with the ball. Her lack of athleticism shows up in games where she cannot win the ball, cannot keep the ball, or cannot get big balls out of the air. It doesn’t matter that she can do a million juggles, every move in the books, or rainbow after rainbow at age 10. She is less effective in games because of what she lacks in her body. Just stating facts. [/quote] OK but that's not the same as saying that tall kids are getting playing time and short kids are sitting. From what you described, your DD is not getting playing time not because she's short, but because she "cannot win the ball, cannot keep the ball" etc. Many short kids have these skills and are often the best players on the team.
