My DD is in her second year of tournament play, but is still eligible to play at the 10U level. Her current team decided not to take her up to the 12U level based off of age not ability. They stated that she should play within her age group. Now, my daughter is not the best on her team, but can handle her own with the older girls and is a very solid player. I was curious if most coach's decision are made by age or skill at try-outs? I thought for tournament teams they wanted the best players? Maybe I am wrong! Since my daughter was turned down from current team I had her out to 3 other try-outs for 12U teams and all offered her positions. I think her skills will improve if she plays against girls that will challenge her to get better. What are your thoughts??
