[quote=Anonymous]OP it might be useful to stay humble and allow your DD the chance to be humble because at this age the fastest most agressive athletes dominate but that will most definitely not always be the case. Around 5th or 6th grade the athleticism develops exponentially in the taller kids who seem to just develop more slowly. By 8th grade, there is an even mix of the short aggressive athletes and the taller, stronger athletes. It seems like it is difficult for the kids who dominated so much in elementary (and I would say especially their parents) to adjust to the new reality. I see this in DDs travel soccer, AAU basketball and swim teams.[/quote]
