[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not reading all the pages so sorry if this was covered. Daughter is a HS freshman with a late September birthday. We plan to continue playing with kids in her grade. She’ll be a sophomore next year and entering into the crucial recruiting years. What would be the benefit of playing a grade level down? Not trolling. Legit question. [/quote]
It all depends on if shes a young or old for her grade Sept birthday and when her schools cutoff date is.

Ultimately if she wants to play in college she'll  need to play on a team/level thats predominantly her grade in school.[/quote]

Also depends how strong each potential team and club is. A not-so great team at grade level might not help her exposure if the younger team is more accomplished. If you need to move clubs, you may have more leverage joining a younger team, especially with the BY/SY transition.

But really you shouldn't be asking an anonymous thread. You should be talking to your current coach/DOC as well as people in similar roles at other clubs she may play at. Finally, ASK the college coaches what they think and what matters most. People here are engaged in an online urinating contest.[/quote]
