[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have really tough try out teams by this age. I’m curious what impact size had on kids ability to stand out. [/quote] You can't really coach size so if size is important to your sport then it's going to impact your ability to stand out. My kid is on a volleyball team. Very skilled but not tall (like 3" shorter than the rest of the team) and they can be replaced by a much less skilled taller kid, not one of two inches but if a much less killed kid with an extra 6" came along they would have to think about whether my kid is a good fit for their team (that's a euphemism for whether they would be cut)[/quote]
