This is tough I find my daughter in this predicament. October birthday so she's young for her grade. She plays up and I know that helps her but at times I've found she struggles socially as she isn't as mature as the older girls. This does at times trickle onto the field and both her and I get frustrated. I'm sure in 2 very short years she will be asked to play varsity as a seventh grader. This will be very good for her state stats if she plays varsity for 6yrs. Just I worry about her overall growth and I wouldn't want HS lax to become stale because she played varsity to long.
