[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Neither RAE nor global warming are conspiracies, to be clear.  I know you want them to be, but they are real things we need to deal with.  To your point, we can mitigate the impact to some degree by working harder outside practice .  I too, think RAE can become a crutch that is compounded by the parents .  This is another reason quite frankly that having multiple age cutoffs just turns the focus even more on RAE.  Parents will leave clubs for that advantage and it will be the main thing people talk about instead of player development.[/quote]
Don't agree about global cooling or rae but let me ask you a question. How do B teams affect or interact with your belief in rae? My take is B teams allow smaller players when younger get reps in. When they get older they'll be the same size as older players and competing for A team rosters spots.[/quote]
Let me tell you what I see (2016g parent)

Asian and latin players develop early and coaches that want to win when young recruit them. But when I look at the sidelines and see that both parents are under 5'3" the early development makes sense. They're nearly full grown at u12. [/quote]

That's only half the story.  The other half is the white girls who grow and don't develop at all.  They have size, sometimes speed, but mostly don't understand the game. They play kickball. They get recruited but end up sitting on the bench not understanding why they don't get to play. [/quote]
When you're 5'1" you might look fast when running but that's only because it takes 3 steps to keep up with every step someone 5'9" takes [/quote]
