[quote=Anonymous]It matters quite a bit in hockey, where checking is not allowed until 14U (14U ranges from kids who are 12 to 15, depending on the time of the year). Once checking is introduced, some small, highly skilled kids struggle with the game's physicality. I think the smaller kids who hit puberty late but stick it out end up as great players - the challenge is keeping them in the game through middle and high school until they hit their growth spurts.
