[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some clubs are simply having the younger seven months of players "play up" so the team stays together. I the [b]PAC is doing this.[/b][/quote]

What a huge and stupid mistake. Cruel even to those kids. [/quote]

I think they changed this after parents freaked out.[/quote]

Good. I am so tired of parents/coaches allowing/encouraging their kids to play up an age group. There are so few kids who truly, truly [b]need[/b] to play up. To play up, they should be noticeably BIGGER, SMARTER, and BORED within their own age group. [/quote]

They don't have to be bigger for chrissakes.  Christian Pulisic was tiny playing up two age groups.

I am so tired of dipshit coaches that only pick size at U-9.   :roll:

I'm the mom of two amazing players who happen to be short. Fortunately, every coach they've ever played for has seen beyond their size. They have speed, fearlessness and terrific foot skills. And size is not a limitation in pro soccer. What if Barcelona had passed on Messi because of his size? Here's a great article on the success of small players in pro soccer. http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2014/06/in-soccer-being-short-can-help/372617/[/quote]

That's great.  Our big club likes to win young.  They think they can teach the big kids skill.  Then by 12-13, the big bumbling idiots still suck and have zero ball skill so they finally demote them after 4 years and bring in players developed elsewhere.
