[quote=Anonymous]The best girls in 7th grade now will not be the best girls in 11th grade. Some of the best girls will be starting to play this year. Coaches take strong, fast, and tall girls and spend the time to develop stick skills. A tiny 7th grader with great stick skills will no longer get to goal. I don't care how many privates she did or clinics she went to. Goalies catch up, defenses get better, and speed and size will rule in the years to come. It doesn't matter what team wins in 7th grade. If you could predict how these girls will grow and develop, then recruiting rules would have stayed the same forever.

Your Magic 8 ball tells you the best 7th grade girls won't be the best in 11th grade. Nobody can predict the future on how girls will grow and develop other than you based on your first sentence. The best players haven't started playing yet? Completely false that used to happen not anymore lets see where all these new stars land at tryouts. Size and speed will rule? How about other intangibles like lax IQ, heart, hustle, work ethic I guess that doesn't matter. And if size and speed will rule in the years to come why don't they rule now?
