If you are undersized you better be really good. If you are slow you better be able to do something better than everyone else.

Coaches look at a lot of things. IQ, character, skill, work ethic, attitude, passion, coachability, athleticism, Size, speed, competitiveness, etc...

At the end of the day the kids that will play are the ones who get the job done and have now off field setbacks.

If your kid is 5' 9'' and really good he will be fine. If your kid is 6' 2'' with big muscles, slow feet, weak skills and a poor attitude he better find another sport.


spot on
