[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question for people with more experience in travel soccer.

My daughter is currently playing travel soccer on a good travel 2nd team, and they have not faced much competition in the past year and a half.  We don't want to change leagues at this point.

Are there many kids who play up a year?  I know some kids do this at u9, but do they continue to play up?  DC would possibly make a lower team in an older age group, but would probably face harder competition.

We've thought about having her try out for the boys team, any thoughts?[/quote]

If your child is on the second team, I wouldn't think they are a good candidate for playing up.  I wouldn't want my child playing up if they would be on a lower team.[/quote]

Tend to agree unless there are some extenuating circumstances. You should at least be a top player on your top team to be considered playing up. After that some clubs require that the play-up be a top 5 or so player as well on the older team to be considered.

Your club may have your kid wrong or the current A team is particularly strong. Who knows.[/quote]
